Sprints-Only-Sprints

Does anyone have an e-mail address for the developer of the Sprints Only Sprints software? I only new him as Sam (never new last name). We used to correspond regulary, but I just get bounce backs for the e-mail address I have.

Thanks,

Slim

I know it was merchandised by SMERT Software Inc. and I have tried unsuccessfully to get in touch with them. I have SOS, and another program they did, called WINNING MOVES. Let me know if you have any luck.

Slim,

My last correspondence with Sam was April 2006 at mspinc@att.net, but that's likely the same address you're trying. SOS turned out to be a very good, inexpensive program that I still use regularly for sprints.

Version 2 or 3?

For those of you that have SOS, what version are you using? I have version 2, I know Sam came out with version 3 which I have been unable to get my hands on.

He did have a 3.0 available for awhile. I like it a lot and use it at CT for 4 and 1/2 furlongs regularly. It hasn't made me rich, but I have caught some nice winners that I otherwise wouldn't have and I'm at about 1.07 so far this year.

That's actually why I was trying to contact him, to tell him that it's still working fine (I was one of his unofficial testers). Another member of PA PMd me with another email address, but that didn't work either. He's a kind, helpful and honest guy. Hope he's okay.

Were you ever able to get hold of the developer of Sprints Only Sprints? Went to use mine today and my computer crashed. Looks like I have lost the program and can not find the original disk. Please let me know. Also, if anyone else can help me out, I would appreciate it. Thanks!

I emailed smertsoftware@verizon.net late in 2010 and was told S.O.S. was now marketed by MSP Inc. I had no luck in locating the MSP Inc company that Matt@Smertsoftware was referring to.

The last time I talked with Sam. He told me he had given up horses and was writing a book on "Terroism"

I too tested his SOS with Maxspa.Our work end up in the minus

They did? I don't see any evidence of that, unless it was deleted and I just don't remember it...regardless, welcome aboard...

I see where the mistaken claim of Sam's demise was posted in another thread last year. Anyway, glad to hear Sam is alive and well and now a member of this forum.

If anyone is wondering why his posts here were removed, Sam requested that they be removed himself, as he meant for his comments to be sent privately to two other forum members...no harm no foul...

Hey, I remember this program. I actually purchased a copy of it years ago. The label says "Modern Sales and Publishing." I have version 2.0. I may have to reinstall it as I totally forgot what it is like! Glad to see its developer is alive and well.
