Ok everyone ,
Let me try to explain here a few things ,
even thought it's not gone be easy .
I had in mind to wait a few more days
before I would make an open announcement ,
but since I expect now more replies and posts to this subject
from more of my loyal and supporting customers ,
or from the ones bean shooting against me ,
I will try to explain what is going on .
On Saturday I received an email from IMPACT
in which they announced my termination as an IMPACT-dealer.
Which obviously blow my cap off ,
since from day 1 I bean active as an IMPACT dealer,
I bean promoting IMPACT items in the best way I could .
Did spend countless , days and weekends over several months
to help IMPACT with there transmission-units ( TU's ) ,
since the first few production-runs of these TU's
had way to many flaws ,
which I never had intended to be made public ,
but since besides some other issues,
I have bean also accused of delaying shipments ,
which was obviously a result of me not having enough time
to catch up with incoming orders for these TU's
and I was working like crazy to fix up these TU's prior shipments
to get them closer to the standards I would like to see them .
Some people evidently didn't quit understood this fact ,
that I had gotten myself in a squeeze ,
by trying to delivery a good product ,
which required from my site a major time-investment
to rework all these TU's prior shipment ,
and I informed every one of my customers
if there was a delay in shipment .
Which didn't seam to be good enough ,
since IMPACT's explanation for my termination was :
Not replying to inquires , which I have proven several times ,
that I either never received these inquires from these particular
persons , or that they never replied back to my responds .
This in fact has bean discussed ,
I don't know how many times in various forums ,
since there are also people out there , placing an order and within
the same day , sometimes even just within hours of placing there
order , posting in a forum , that they would have placed an order
a few days ago and haven't gotten any replies from me .
This is a fact and I can proof that more then just once .
I don't understand what's behind this kind of behavior ,
besides trying to give me a hard time in my work
I am trying to do for this hobby for everybody's benefit.
Since quit a while there are things going on beyond my control ,
and which I don't understand why ,
but it seams like there are some sources out there
which are trying to undermine what I am trying to do for the hobby .
IMPACT gave me the status as there exclusive dealer for there TU's ,
because of my work I invested in to these .
Now the coin has flipped and I get terminated as an IMPACT dealer …
Go figure that one out ….
Instead of building more cool stuff for my customers and friends ,
I spend this past weekend
trying to figure out what the heck is going on with all of this .
I did get burned already once
by trying to get a friends hobby-business up and running .
There are other hobby-business out there
which popped up and disappeared again ,
because of some money-hungry people ,
which are just out for the money
and not for the passion for this hobby .
If there is anybody else out there likes to take a shot at me ,
just go ahead and speak up.
Most likely I gone retract from supporting this hobby anyways ,
since I am realy sick and tired of all the political business crap ,
and keep getting burned just by trying to beaing an honest hobbyist.
My final decision on that ,
if I continue what I bean doing
and gone start fighting these black sheep's out there ,
will depend on how things will develop in near future.
Of course I still will always be there
for my true friends and supporters !
Regards
Willy

Because you will not buy a better TU unit on the market made or
distributed by any one BAR NONE. The care nad precision he puts into
these things is pure love for the hobbie.

and above anything you can get from other suppliers. The parts you
get from Willy are the best you can get from iImpact because he makes
sure everything is correct before shipping. It's not only Impacts
reputation but Willy's also. So like I said Don;t wrry about anything
you have ordered from willy. You will get it. AND IT will WORK the
way it shoukld.
