Well, Bobby now reports that the Carrier/Griffin transaction may not be a done deal! We were also reminded that Mr. Griffin's TF team, which was to be driven by Scott Weis, never made it to the track because of a number of problems -
I find it very hard to believe that NHRA.com would post this story without input from one of the parties involved. I hope Cory and Wes are not the losers in what looks to be a bad situation.

Very very true.

Too bad it had to come to this .I realy feel bad for the carrier boys. They are good peeps..One of them deals writing was on the wall .but did you read it ?

Griffin is actually a very good con man....he puts out what he's planning on doing and rips sponsors, drivers and team owners off.

Example 1: Andrew Cowin to run the full IHRA tour, sponsored by Serta. Actual races attended - 5 then released

Example 2: Replaces Cowin with a mutually beneficial deal with Scott Weis. Had meetings with Barrett and worked a co-sponsorship with them (I'm sure $$$ changed hands). Then sites lack of sponsorship and pulls the plug...not returning the investment to Barrett.....now I could have sworn I read that Serta was a 3-year deal!!

Example 3: This mess with the Carrier Boys. By reading what has been stated so far, he passed bad checks. To me that means he gave a deposit, then started with the bad checks. He tells us all their going for it the rest of the year, but then he tells Fram 5 races later he needs more money. Thats weird because Fram funded the team for the year, so where did the funds go?

I know there's always 2 sides to every story, but I could care less what this POS has to say. The facts speak for themselves.

Scott Griffin, you are a scum bag!~

I think you will find that the Serta deal was a con job also.

i found this on his website Scott Griffin Motorsports - Our People and wonder if these people got off the ship before it sank because their reputation won't be much anymore.

150 years experience? That could mean 150 people with 1 year experience or 75 people with 2 years experience....

Serta deal was a con job also.

It was..the inside scoop I got on that was,,He put their name on the trailer and car ..Hoping they give him some money. Bet they thought. Hey he doing it for free why should we give him anything..Now thats what I was told by someone close to the deal.I realy find it hard to beleve he is that dumb.But maybe ?? I don't know..But I do know He still got some crew members mad over the scott weis deal..He stuck them with a appt. contact and did't pay it. Now the place is going after the crew members.

You would be surprised how often the fake sponsor deal has been done in this sport. It is usually not to get anything from the name on the car, but to make you look like a big time sponsored racer to the next people you are trying to promote.

Rumor has it that one of the sports biggest stars did that very thing early on in his career.

If I were Cory, I would Demand that My Name and Picture be taken off the Web Site, At least that much.
