| The prizes should have been paid for from the get go...IMO...And regardless of who’s race it is...I am fully paid in FULL when I enter the race an I expect the same when I am owed money...NO EXCUSES..And yeah it’s a bad situation for the whole sport.. |

| I forgot to add a piece to this. Wesley has now paid over half of what Mr. Holloman was owed to him. He is not owed the full amount that he won still. That doesn’t make it right by any means, just letting everyone know that Wesley is trying to pay him up. And I agree, before the races are held, the money and prizes should be in place. I was led to believe all prizes and money were in place. If I had been presented otherwise, there is no way I would’ve tried to help him promote the series and obtain sponsors. I believe this is a situation where a financial backer was in place and either the well ran dry or simply was cut off. I’ve known Wesley for a long time and not for a second do I believe his intentions were to not award or pay a fellow racer. It’s a bad deal for sure. quote: Originally posted by Danny Waters Jr:
Wesley has not skipped out on paying or the prizes. Fact is, he didn’t have the money to cover the full purse and all prizes. He is making payments to Mr. Holloman to try and make it right.
To my knowledge, the transmissions, motor nor chassis have been paid for yet, but he has stated he is working towards getting it done somehow, someway.
The one incorrect statement from above is about the VP fuel. That was a direct sponsorship deal from VP Fuels and Marc Wesler himself with VP has personally rewarded all but 1 drum of fuel.
It is a sucky situation, but Wesley is trying to make it all right.
You can’t get blood out of a turnip.
As far as the NL deposit being paid, I have no idea. “If” Wesley paid the deposit out of pocket and not the balance to Will first, then I think that sucks! If “he” didn’t pay it, I’m not sure how the outcome could be different.
BTW: Not sure where that phone number from for me above, but it isn’t even close. lol
I’d ask you all to please keep an open mind when reading comments on a forum or a social media outlet.

| Will, I’m not playing innocent, I am innocent. I have known you the majority of your life and have done nothing but helped you over the years. You know Wesley owns No Limit. You know he is and always has been the money of No Limit. You know my name is not on any of the business or banking accounts. I do not owe you money. I do not owe anyone prizes. Wesley does and has made it very clear that it is HIS deal. I have privately asked you to please stop harassing me. I’m doing the same now publicly. Please leave me alone! Wesley isn’t hiding. His number is (540) 273-9197 if anyone feels the need to confirm any of this. Also, thanks Tom for sharing. quote: Originally posted by Tom396:

NOLimit Promotions Yesterday at 1:06 PM · I, Wesley Washington Jr am the soul contact for any payout and prize responsibility for No Limit Promotions. I asked Danny to help me in promotion of the series and help obtaining sponsors. We have been good friends for many years and has helped us all. He has no financial ties to No Limit in any way. Please privately direct any concerns or questions to me. Thank you all.
Take care. Tom Worthington

| Is this the way the majority of my fellow racers feels? I honestly want to know. My name was on every big check, as I was asked to help promote the brand and obtain sponsors. I want honest feedback. I have worked my butt off to be able to race and help others. I don’t want to be tarnished for life due to this situation. I want to go to any track USA and still have my racing family. quote: Originally posted by WHOMPWHOMP:

The crooks are lucky jails an option. There could have just as easily been the wrong dude to mess with in that bunch that forced them to move in next door to Jimmy Hoffa. On a side note, "No Money Promotions" turned out to be one of the greatest SFG advertisers of the year. I guess he wont be giving Kyle any more advice on how to run a bracket race  |

| I just wonder how this happened. I'm sure I don't understand how these races go together. But was the race not solvent due to lack of turnout? If the turnout was good, I would just imagine that everything could be taken care of before trailers roll out of the race track. Perhaps not in cash. But do a bunch of racers' checks bounce?

I have no idea what went wrong,but it reminds me of a Super Bowl pool that a guy at work had a few years ago. When it came time to pay the winners,a bunch of people never paid for their squares,so he didn't have the money to pay the winners. Not saying that is what happened here,but extending credit to good friends and coworkers doesn't always work out. Strangely enough,the only people that were upset were the winners.The people that lost said "Oh well,I didn't win anyways". |
