    If you've met Dwayne Myers or his partners at Dynamic Automotive, Lee and Jose, you know they're salt-of-the-earth people. Gracious, kind, funny, not to mention the owners of a killer operation. But that hasn't precluded them from experiencing tough times. 

    In fact, in 2007 and 2008, they went through a period that nearly destroyed them. It was a period so destructive it moved past burnout into near midlife crises. In part one of this story, Dwayne breaks down the beginning of the issue that continued to steamroll and left the team in over their heads, and how growing too quickly played into the problem.
