I had to clean my camper van on the rack the other day and I thought hey!

Why don't I try the high powered pressure washer I got last summer!

The rest is history.

Grease was the main problem with the sticking ventilator coupling, but the soap provided just wouldn't cut the grease.

After some careful examination I decided...

To supply my own! who cares anyhow?

So... jay... When are we goig tosee some PAID jetrack advertisnig here on RC?

Ouch! that hurts!

I am very close to ordering one of these, but I would like to hear how it actually works from someone other than the inventor first (sorry, but its how I am).

I think Impaqt also has a very valid point, sorry to say.

Wow... What a moment to walk away for a bit.

Impaqt - When??? Soon... It's a conundrum actually.

The more jet rack sales made, the more freely the advertising money flows. If I held the purse strings, it would have happened already. Since all I have now is a big hole where my wallet used to be, I can't really justify taking any more on than I already have.

FYF - I have been in regular communication on the subject with Daniel, and even e-mailed him about a week ago on the subject.

Ted - It does hurt... The fact is that this is the only place I'm welcome because your all my friends... Well at least you pretend to be my friends... Well, actually you don't even pretend to be my friends. In fact, I'll bet that if I we're on the side of the road.... OK ... Forget about all of that. The point is that I was here LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG before the "RACK" was ever so much a thought in the back of my head.

To ALLLL of you... I WILL have an ad placed on here... When the time comes. Although, I don't expect much out of it.

When is the last time you read the banners on a site you frequent?

What is the last banner you clicked on?

All I'm saying is that if the world were going to end if we didn't all click enough banner ad's (porn wont cut it either)... The world was fun.

Furthermore... With that said... If I couldn't talk about the RACK in the forum, I would NEVER advertise on the site.

The8thst - I don't get it... A smart guy like you? You are obviously a person who has the capacity to make up your own sound decisions. Do you wait to hear what the pizza tastes like before ordering it? Do you not buy a new appliance before reading Consumer Reports?

My point is?? It's a BRAND NEW product... You might have to wait awhile before you see one in your buddy down the streets truck. And I'm not "The Inventor" I'm a contractor! The paterfamilias! A damn good one too. I have been one for years and years.. This was a solution to a problem, and it works really really well.

I'm sure the web site will be updated with new testimonials soon, but for now you'll just have to trust me. Make history!.. Be one of the first to order and own one! Be cutting edge with a dull knife! Have your OWN testament to the JET RACK's simple and functional solution immortalized on the JET RACK web sight before they finally decide to stop sifting through the fan mail from around the globe!

Have you even taken te time to watch the video? There is no smoke, mirrors, and wires there... I've had thousands of contractors use the RACK at shows before it was available, and some of the things they said.... Let's see...

"WHAT!?!? Holly Jezeus! That's slicker than greased elf shi#!"

"Finally... Something I can sell!

"This was the only thing I saw at the show that I liked. This alone made the show woth coming to."

"Send me 10 right now."

"Can I take this one with me?"

"Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn!"

(Thick German accent) - " I see a lot of so called 'new products' Most of them are Shi#. This one is good. Very good"

All of the above, plus variations. Most remarkably are the guys that would return to our booth 3,4,5,6 times... And call their friends.

Go ahead.. 8thst Order one. If you don't like it, come see me at the booth at CEDIA. I'll give you your money back out of my pocket...

If you really want to get the ad on RC... Do what will help the most... Buy a Rack. Tell your friends. Especially tell those friends that need to hear it from somebody else first.

Oh yeah 8... Just kidding.. I can be the same way.

I could seriously use the support.

My biggest concern is that every thread you start has the title: "Jet Rack".

Perhaps you could be a little more descriptive in your thread titles?

Jay~

I think you should consider that everyone of us here that buys one should be worth a small referal fee to Daniel. To heck with a banner, just tag it like a "group buy" or something and give a buck back or something. FWIW, I am an editor/moderator on another forum and have worked hard for years to hide the fact that I am also a dealer/integrator in "real life." The reason for this is the very same perceptions that you are seeing here about from where my participation might really be motivated. Sorry, but that's the way it is.

Your product has long intrigued me, but I too am getting a little tired of the postings that are a constant bullhorn to buy one. Please show me that you have set up a referral system, (or let me take a Remote Central discount and send it to Daniel myself) or I won't be testing the Order Cart very soon at all. Don't get me wrong; I love what you have done and you seem so genuine about it; it's just a matter of principal for me.

wh - It's tough... It's like being at a reunion and telling people about what you've been up too, maybe networking a little, and being asked to leave... The only difference is that I never left. This place is like hanging out in my own kitchen with friends.

It's too bad I'm so anonymous here.. I tip better and pay the fair price as much or more than anybody I know.

I would have to be a mental midget as well as a low life to ever think I could cheat Daniel out of a dime.

A Buck? I can do better than that. I've pondered giving Daniel a buck for every post I've ever made in addition to a commission for each Rack Purchase.

I'll speak with the company about adding a code, or a 'You heard about the Rack where?' tab, but honestly. I won't leave him hanging.

By the time CEDIA rolls around, I will have this issue taken care of long ago.

If I didn't. I'd expect a slashed tire and some dirty remarks. No fear, because it will never happen that way.

If Daniel wants to, he can ask me to keep quiet. He hasn't. I've gone so far as to offer him placement of RC logos on our Show display as well as a link on our web site back to RC...

Don't be too hard on me.. Please. If you understood the burden of undertaking a project like this you would better understand where I'm coming from.

I'll bet I have as much or more text on this site than 95% of all of the regular users, and MAYBE 5% of my postings have been RACK related.


Technically this is the 1st one to be titled with only RACK . The rest have been far less descriptive.

For the record - If you order a RACK after finding it on RC, let me know. I'll keep track and commission Daniel accordingly.

Buy one, and write about it in this or other forums and provide me a link and I'll boost his commission WAY WAY up. CASH

Jay, don't take it too personally. We all know that you have been here a long time and have contributed to the place with posts. The point is we all like Jay the CI and want him to stay, and don't want him to turn into Jay the Jet Rack guy or even worst Jay the annoying jet Rack that only comes here to post adds about Jet Rack. That is a danger when you have a room full of potential customers. I will be honest, when I first saw this thread was "oh no not an other Jet Rack thread", it is not because I don't find your product interesting nor because I don't wish you the best of luck and not because I don't hope it is a big success. Just the simple fact that too many threads on a subject that is always in the forefront and brought there by someone that has something to gain becomes annoying.

You have a lot of posts... absolutely.... And have definatly helps a lot of people around here... That has certainly never been questioned..... Maybe you dont realize what you've been doing letely though.... Check your "Recent Posts" Of your last 30 posts..... 14 have been Jetrack related... Granted... Youve had to respond tosome people... But 14 is a lot.....

Its not even so much the taking care of Danial thing for me anymore.... I hope you do that... But thats really none of my busines..... The multitudeof Jetrack posting is bordering on Spam at this point..... and its just got me a little annoyed...

Impaqt

Hey Jay

I'm only sorry there is no link to your new product here. I've not logged on in an age. I don't even know what you're selling, but as a long time, highly active and helpful poster on this site, I'm sure it's valuable. I hope that Daniel doesn't have a problem with you sharing your excitement as I'm sure you have no trouble sharing a bit of the profits with him.

Good luck!

For my part I've enjoyed the frequent posts updating the progress on the Jet Rack and I really doubt Mr. Tonks has a huge problem with these posts. I also think it's only natural to want the feedback and support of your peers through a process as difficult as manufacturing a new product. But the reality is there that the product now needs to be sold. I'll be ordering one by the end of the month.

You know, all this talk of Jay the Jet Rack guy reminds me of something....

[Link: pbskids.org]

Anthony and Impaqt - When I do the math, I have to think that you're the type of guys who listen to radio programs you don't enjoy and watch television programs that disgust you so that you can get out your note pad and complain about the portions of the show you may find objectionable. The hate to think what type of dinner table patter you carry on with amongst your family and friends. I'm just glad I'm not a part of it.

I live in a world where we celebrate the victories of our peers, friends, family, and yes.. even strangers. We also morn thier loses appropriately.

If you don't want to read about the Rack... Please, by all means. Don't open the thread. Daniel and his moderator/s are more than capable of communicating their objections to my postings. (Objections to date - zero)

If I were on the other side of the fence as you are, I would have found postings on the subject entertaining, enlightening, and If I had ever thought of going though the trouble of product development... a great resource.

Sorry to have upset your apple cart guys. It was not my intention; nevertheless, if you ever have an idea that you want to bring to market and want a few pointers, you know you can feel free to contact me, and like I have for everyone else, I'll do what I can to point you down the least painful path.

Get back to your math!

HD & Ted - Thank you so much for the kind words of support. I'm glad you've enjoyed the process and I hope to be able to keep it up with great success for a long time.

I may just have to move the discussion to the Intermission forum where idiotic behavior goes unchecked.

Cake, Walk, March, GI, Jane, John, Dear John, John Deer... It's really mind numbingly boring to me, but that's 'IMOHO'


Ted.... I and my boy are more into trains...

We've graduated from Thomas and Jay Jay.

I just love how the slightest mention of a product sold by a member on this forum is met with such an unneccesary amount BS. Get a clue you guys. Jay IS a member of our forum as much as all of you, try showing a bit of good humor, maybe assume the best once or twice. It's becoming obvious that some of us on this forum have far too little real work to do, if we are spending this much time flaming other members. Get a life. Lets move on. If I'm being a bit short, it's because I'm, sick to death of coming to this forum looking for good information to help me get back into the field, but instead I find myself sifting through piles of crap like this thread. Now I'm going to click on Jay's link to his webpage, and Jay, thank you for posting it. Otherwise I may never have known about this product. If daniel would like to be compensated for allowing Jay's post, should I personally end up buying a "JETRACK" (look! there it is again!) then I may chip in as a thank you. To those with too much time on thier hands, the next time a thread pops up in reference to someone's product for sale, why not just leave the thread and go cry in a beer somewhere. Not sifting through your whining here would be a huge relief.
