K guys...everyone on this site knows all the BS I've been through the past 6 months, so I'm not going to get into that.
What I do want to say is I have always felt everyone in dbdrag was a part of my family and considered almost everyone on this site a friend of mine and I screwed up a lot of friendships and acquaintances that I worked hard to get in the past 6 years I've competed!
Nick Wright...Bro...I owe you the biggest apology of anyone I know right now. You have always helped me out no matter what, even gave me product and let me owe you for it...what other companies would do that? I promise I am going to take care of you and make everything right. You have gone way beyond being a friend and even let me bitch and complain to you when stuff piled up on me. I'll give you a call tomorrow and get you taken care of man!
Carlton Price, man you have always been a TRUE friend to me, always there to answer questions or just to talk for awhile. Always eager to help out anyway you can and I went off on you man, and really disrespected our friendship and I'm truly sorry for that.
Jay Thompson, I'm sorry I made the team look bad.You gave me plenty of chances to make everything right and keep it private. But at the time everyone else was on me and I just took it out on you, it was a big mistake bro. I am truly sorry for anything and EVERYTHING i said that was out of line or disrespectful to you.
Mike Stiers/John Studly/Maxxonics, I don't even know what to say to you guys. You have hooked me up on may occassions and went beyond what you had to do for me. You've always been there for me to talk to for hours on end if I had a question or if I needed to discuss something. I have always been outspoken and it has never hurt me before, but when things got so screwed up I made the maxxsonics crew look bad, looking back I realize this. I have no good explination for my actions and again, all I can do is say I'm sorry.
Tracy Focht, bro you have never been anything but nice to me and I disrespected you publically which was one of the biggest mistakes I've ever made. I had a good thing setup with Kicker and I slapped you in the face after everything you've done for me. I'm really sorry for that man!
Terry Jackson...I know all you've ever done is push me to get my stuff situated and I took it as an attack. I appreciate all you've done and you even went out of your way to help me get everything taken care of.
To those who I've owed/owe I don't blame you guys at all for making anything public, I would have done the same thing or I would have made a drive and collected (which in the case wouldn't do any good because I couldn't give you anything when you got here lol) Just hope I didn't totally ruin some friendships that I've made with people I've made transactions with.
I'm finally getting my life back together. I know I've disprescted, put down, attacked, threatend, and made a total asshole out of myself.
All I can do is apologize and hope to get forgiveness from those I've had altercations with. Even if all the threads are deleted, the peoples opinions I truely care about have already been effected by all this. I know that this isn't something that would be easily forgiven or forgotten but I hope I can build my reputation back up and get back to where I used to be with the stereo competition community.
All I can do now is keep looking ahead and try to get back to realitive normality, or as normal as I've ever been

There's no hard feelings on our part Justin and I'm glad to see you deal with this with a better attitude and your apology is of course accepted.
Read it a few times to yourself and live by what you said.
There is no way better to way to show your real self then to lead by your own example.

i know this doesnt concern me, but id just like to say,
i have alot of respect for people who can openly admit their faults and actually make an effort to set things straight.
justin, your a good guy as far as im concerned. i know what its like to go through tough times, many of the things you have said youve been through, ive been through myself. i know how you feel, i lost alot of my friends in the past because of how i was.
overcoming my troubles in the past has only made me stronger today. best of luck to you justin, if you ever need someone to talk to, just let me know.

Last year Justin and I had a problem,,he borrowed my trailer and brought it back with a tire/wheel on it that was pretty much junk, which stranded me on a Sunday afternoon about a hour away from home. Well, I called and cussed him like a dog, probably worse than I should have, and I think he cussed me back. If it was anyone else I probably would have never talked to them again, but I knew Justin didnt mean to bring my trailer back screwed up, that he is a pretty good guy and even though he didnt mean for it to happen it did. I forgave him, and he forgave me, and we are cool. It takes a big man to admit what you have been going through, most people wouldnt. Justin may have faults but he does have character. It would have been easy for him to drop off the internet world after he owed people money(ronnie?) but he didnt, he faced it head on.
BTW, i still think you owe me money for that damn tire,,,,lol,,j/k

come to cooks show and i'll buy you dinner for the tire lol
That rotted POS tire took me a few hours to find in podunk Alabama! Was laying out in a field, had grass growing around it, took 2 cans of fix a flat to get it to stop leaking lol
It held up with my truck on it for 3 hours though. I couldn't find any other tires in that load range here though and it kind of slipped my mind when i dropped it off

Hey Justin, I don't know you other than here on the forum but I do have some words of encouragement that might help. Sometimes God puts obstialces in front of us so that we can learn and overcome them to help make us a better stronger person. Experience is and expensive lesson but often the best teacher. I assume that you have learned something from your ordeal here and will make wise decisions in the future based on this experience that you have been through. Hang in there and keep your head up. You are trying to overcome your faults and make things right in your life and you are not alone in your journey. I think that you have took a step in the right direction by formally appologizing to the people involved and that takes a person with BALLS to come out and admit that they made a mistake and are willing to make things right. I am proud of the turnaround that you are making and if there is ever anything that I can help you with let me know. Maybe one day we will cross paths and I will share a story about a struggle that I too overcame and had to make redemption for. Anyway continue to use your faith to help you through your tough times and I'm sure that everyone will eventually forgive you. Just remember to treat people the way you would like to be treated in the future. I hope I'm not stepping outside my boundaries here by saying what I've said, but I only mean this to encourage and help you.
