Dean Wilson Out of Dallas, Stuck at U.S. Border

Saturday, March 20, 2010 | 12:28 PM
Racer X's Steve Cox is reporting that coming back from Canada following the Toronto Supercross, Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki's Dean Wilson ran into some immigration problems. Supposedly, he waited till the end of December to sign his contract with Pro Circuit, and because he wasn't 18 and couldn't sign it legally, and he couldn't sort his paperwork out till after that. Apparently, they thought everything was done because his agent, Tony Gardea, had lawyers working on everything, so they thought everything was legit. But, as it turns out, something wasn't filed properly, so when he went to leave the country again they wouldn't let him out. As a matter of fact, the whole Wilson family is stuck back there, not just him. He's been working on it all week, and Friday morning they finally got it all done and they submitted it to the Canadian officials, and at 5:00 p.m. Friday they still hadn't had a chance to look at it yet, so they said, “Sorry, we'll look at it Monday.”

Wilson, who finished fourth in Canada and held third in the East Region rankings behind his teammate Christophe Pourcel and Rockstar Suzuki's Austin Stroupe, will probably be back on Monday or Tuesday of next week, but as for tonight’s Dallas Supercross, he's definitely not making the race.
