I've known Tyler for about 3 years. If he has a shortcoming it is making bad decisions that bite him in the :censure: - some of that is youth, some is just bad choices.
For a while he was under the spell of a major, older, well known local trouble maker in SoCal who lead him down a terrible path; on the other hand, we all met his dad when we raced at San Bernardino about 18 months ago; he is a welder fabricator and seemed to be a talented and nice man.
Funny, but thru everything, I like Tyler! He is in school and hopefully will grow into a responsible man! There are a lot of great guys right here, hell in this thread, from whom he could learn a lot about the "golden rule" and "doing the right thing"!
Tyler, if you read this, good move, you can see that the reaction to your honest apology is respect! Now look around at the different folks you know and decide who you are going to be in life - your choice how you will live and deal with others - hope you pick the high road!
Next time you are in a tight spot, feel free to call me!! I will cover your choices with you . . . . . . . .. you will decide who you are and how to proceed!!
