Someone that has been involved with the team made a FB post implying that the ride is over on the teams FB page. Pretty vague (as is usually the case by the particular person) on wether or not it was the single empoyee or the entire team shutting down.
I dont think it is a suprise to anyone that has monitored the RW situation over the past few years. Cant keep help, not paying vendors, not paying help, not reimbursing help, running on a whim instead of a plan. More rent a rides than hired guns.
Fired everyone at Fontana, then ran it in the ground, at least one pending lawsuit against Fontana/RW. Several customers running Chili Bowl on engines they borrowed/leased from other teams because their engines were not ready and the customers parts couldnt be produced upon request even for viewing. Their own team at Chili Bowl was running at least one car on a borrowed engine because they didnt have enough. Promising customers engines on certain dates and missing the deadline by several months. Switching out parts on cutomer engines and keeping their parts, etc., etc.
Asking for money on FB to put a car together for Chili Bowl. Having the electric company leave disconnect notices on the door while they were at Chili Bowl (@ both RWMS and Fontana). Claiming to donate north of $2500 to charity after expenses, prizes and pictures even though the GoFundMe page campaign only had $1,550 in it on the last day. Must of had a heck of a last minute contribution after several months of only small steady contributions. Wheels have been falling off behind the scenes for quite a while. Hard to keep track of the story telling after a while I bet.
Not sure what the rumors are Grinch, but there are some facts and a comment about last nights FB post.
