Founder & Editor in Chief: Joshua Decker
DubWorld.com was founded by QuattroWorld.com founder, Joshua Decker. He desired to see the growth of a VW related news and community website built around the Kawf platform that has made QuattroWorld such a success. Josh got his start in the automotive world in VWs and has owned 7 different VWs including a 1986 GLI, 1992 GTI 2.0L 16V, 1995 Jetta, 1995 Eurovan and a 2001 GTI with custom widebody. He would love to get back into owning a VW someday and his dream is to import a new Scirocco.
Josh loves motorsports and is a regular at the Continental Sports Car Challenge races where he enjoys cheering on the APR Motorsport crew. He also has been lucky enough to be part of Le Mans in 2010 where he saw the Audi R15s sweep the podium with a 1-2-3 victory. He has 3 Audis currently, a 2000 Stage 3 S4, a 2002 S6 Avant, and a 2012 Q7 TDI on order! Josh is a regular contributor to DubWorld.com and is the Editor in Chief for both DubWorld.com and QuattroWorld.com.
