Dream weaver shutting down

[Burke1118]

Hearing this from a pretty good source.. hopefully it’s not true

[HoosierDirtFan]

If this was the case it would be on Tanner's Facebook page. Probably with a thank you to Randy Weaver and the other owner <> To me Tanner is that kind of guy to post a thank you message.

[stewart fan]

Weaver doesnt seem to stay when things get tough,Moyer junked Overton then he was done

[TOPSIDETIMMY]

So if your source is so good why would you start a thread asking about it?

[4k's]

You cant do your fans or your drivers wrong. It always comes back to bite you. THE END

[Illtsate32]

Huh? Tanner has already shown he could win some races idk why they would shut it down so fast...

[huskerdirt]

Weaver doesnt seem to stay when things get tough,Moyer junked Overton then he was done

Wut?

Overton left them.

[dirt crow]

Wut?

Overton left them.

Overton left plus 2 crew members. That tells me more blame on Randy. ......but shutting down? Kinda hard to believe.

[grt74]

it going to be hard for weaver to get a driver now, all they have to do is see how the past was done, no one wants to take a chance on not having a ride after a race or two, wish the best for tanner, he deserved better, reality is this year was going to be a learning year, overton was good because he already ran the woo, tanner hasn't been to all of the tracks yet and i thought he did great when the car didn't let him down, hope someone picks him up, he is a very hard worker and racer, a plus for anyone's program

[huskerdirt]

Overton left plus 2 crew members. That tells me more blame on Randy. ......but shutting down? Kinda hard to believe.

Right.

But it wasn’t like Randy cut them loose. They left willing, I’m sure there are reasons and finger pointing.

I do find it hard to believe they are shutting down a month into the season.

Has anything official been announced or is this all just speculation?

[HoosierDirtFan]

There's nothing posted anywhere.

[dch191]

There's nothing posted anywhere.

That’s what I thought but didn’t know if I may have missed anything.

[castone]

This is a little off topic, but WoO race at Duck River March 8th - Tanner is always real good there I believe he will be there with or without Weaver.

[Burke1118]

So if your source is so good why would you start a thread asking about it?Wasn’t asking...... was stating.

[President Clinton]

Would kinda be a shotty way to do Tanner????

[kidrock]

One thing for sure Tanner English can wheel a race car and he proved it even more during Speedweeks. If a car owner had any doubts is was all but, erased during Speedweeks. I have no idea if this rumor is true or not but, my guess we would have already seen it on DoD so, there's that.

[bullittwrench]

It’s on Twitter.

Thanks for the info Burke. Typical 4m, a poster gives some soon to be confirmed info, gets 80 percent of people questioning him saying it’s bs. I appreciate it Burke.

[Snake X3]

Wow. This thread was started at 1:16pm.

[NormP]

It's understandable that even when it turns out to be true, people are doubtful until the rumor is confirmed. 95% of the "insiders" who "have been hearing rumors" on 4m don't know their ass from a hole in the ground.

This time someone actually heard the truth, but that's a very rare thing around here.

It's a real shame things didn't work out for Weaver and English. They were looking strong. Hopefully Tanner picked up some good info in his time with the team and can get some big wins this season.

It's because the word of mouth isn't heard by many on here. 90% of the ones that claim they know this or that, only know it because of DoD or social media.

Im guessing Chip probably bailed out finally. It sucks for English. That dude reminds me a lot of Josh Mcquire. Extremely fast at times, but has nothing but bad luck.

[squaredup12]

It’s made DoD now. Bummer for sure.

[kidrock]

Mr.Wrench I see that. It's also on DoD now as well.

[Dlmfan123]

If they “sold out” who bought it all?

[jr29]

I really hate to hear this news.
I don't understand why the team couldn't be up front from the beginning about the sponsorship situation. Just say we hope to run a full schedule with Tanner but we have to tie up some loose ends on the sponsorship side.
Guys retire then come back a month later. Teams commit to running a series but drop off before Easter. This was supposed to be the hot new team and it's over before it really got started. I don't think any of that makes for a good look.

[fastford]

may as well get use to this , and its not gone be the last team this happens to , didnt weaver have a son that was starting to race?

[dch191]

I believe they will still have a crate car for Weavers son. The only thing that’s getting shut down from what I understand is the 116 car that Tanner was driving

[4k's]

Something just dont sound right about this whole thing. But to do driver like this is totally wrong..Lets see how this really plays out.

[CarolinaDirt]

I hope someone picks this kid up and quick , he is worldly talented but he is raw. He needs a quality ride to show what he can do . I hate the Weaver thing fell through because more than providing a car Randy was helping in his development .

[IZZOJR16]

the whole thing around the 116 seem something of chaos. too bad, one of the fastest cars in the country

[IZZOJR16]

Im guessing Chip probably bailed out finally. It sucks for English. That dude reminds me a lot of Josh Mcquire. Extremely fast at times, but has nothing but bad luck.not true. been on this board for years. a lot of good inside info makes it way on here. a lot of stuff on here turns out to be confirmed.

[AHydro23]

Weird that they "sold out" so quick. Maybe he had a buyer lined up. Or maybe he sold it at a real good price. It always takes me forever to sell anything big.

[Kromulous]

I'm starting to think Weaver is the problem himself. He has been at the center of some controversy since he has hung up driving himself. Maybe not controversy, but some sort of upheaval for the last 3 or 4 years. Anyway, moving on.

I hope English can get a break, seems like he has the talent to run with the big boys. Maybe some shows in that Tye Twarog ride ?

[fastford]

if he is that good , some one will pick him up , and i wander why this"buyer" did not keep him?

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

if he is that good , some one will pick him up , and i wander why this"buyer" did not keep him?

A lot of good drivers have no ride. I guess you know who the buyer is?

[fastford]

i do know randy weaver , but not getting in this , aint worth it , i will say i have never had a problem with him on or off the track.........

[QUOTE=4k's;2253969]Something just dont sound right about this whole thing. But to do driver like this is totally wrong..Lets see how this really plays out.[/QUOTE I was worried about this for Tanner when I first heard it. Hasn't Weaver done this to a driver before. Was Weaver's new hauler and trailer part of the sponsorship problem?

[JabberJaws83]

If you know you’re facing sponsorship issues, why do you attend all of speedweeks?

[fastford]

maybe they were expecting better results , it is amazing how a week in florida dictates the whole season for a lot of teams......
