The LEGION Lives!
« on: May 17, 2007, 03:27:38 AM »
"Just when I thought I was out....they pull me back in"...

Carl and I will be making a trip to Kentucky soon to go over our new and GREAT pieces.  The LEGION still lives and will be stronger then ever with FIGS at the helm (glad he's there).  We'll be keeping all our loyal Track fans on the up and up with the exciting news.

LONG LIVE THE LEGION!

I agree, that name sounds real good. Unfortunately, even if they start doing testing in the upcoming weeks, it'll probably be July or August before we see anything be released to the public.

Awesome, Rick, I can't wait to hear more news!
--------------------
Mr. Lebowski, this is Bill Salnicker with the Southern Cal Bowling League, and I just got a, an informal report, that a member of your team, uh, Walter Sobchak, drew a firearm during league play. If this is true of course, it contravenes a number of the league's by-laws, and article 27 of the league...

I invented America.

Great news. I have started to try other companies for fear that Track would never be the same. Hopefully with the help of long time loyal Track testers and staff (like Rick and Carl) we will continue to have quality equipment for "THE LEGION".

Thanks,

Well, we'll see.  It would be really nice to not see Track fully disintegrate.

I don't know why you'd think it would disintegrate.  Just look what happened to Hammer after Ebonite took them over.  They now have some of the most popular stuff going.

That will just not happen! I firmly believe that Track will be back in the forefront of bowling technology.

I don't need the newest, The Track products made in Texas over the last few years are phenominal. I'm sure they will serve me well for years to come.

Trust me.  I'm hoping so.  I've invested alot into Track products as of late(including the Phoenix).  That ball, nor the Mean Machine or Power Machine has led me astray yet...

Hey Xcessive,

I promise you won't be disappointed.  I spent at least 2-3 hrs with Ron H and Randy T (on my first trip).  These gentlemen in R&D are "very impressive" to say the least, very sharp guys. They're a little bit out there (strong point in design and covers) too but they can relate info like Carl and I do.  I apologize for not being able to offer you guys more info at this time but we will as soon as we can.  If you have trusted Carl and myself for the last 4-5 years, just give us a couple of months and we're going to blow your minds away!  Just a little more time guys and we'll be BACK on TRACK!

Rick,

That has to be part of the new Track set of slogans,
"We're 'Back on Track'!"

Sounds good.  As much as I love my Total NV, I want that to be the last non-track ball I buy.  I checked out some of your videos by the way.  Nicely done.  My favorite one is the video of you throwing different balls from the same line to show differences in power.  I'm going to be seeing my coach this upcoming Monday.  I want to focus more on video time so I can post them as well.

Rick and Carl.....
This is some great news... Glad we are getting our ducks back in a row with Track. I still use my Animal and Triple Threat in tournaments and league. I have new equipment but I always go back to what works. I just seem to match up with Track equipment.
