We don't get ESPN here so i had to go to Seattle to get my Force fix. :p
He really scoots all over so perhaps that mileage is a story.

All the daughters are nice to look at, Courtney even won the Alky Digger class.

I'm getting tired of reading about all this Force whining on here and particularly on Drag Racing Online.


Have any of you people ever been to a fucking NHRA national event? John Force Racing has more people standing around it than all the other teams combined. Ashley Force merchandise is the biggest seller in the entire NHRA. The crowd goes fucking insane every time a Force car runs.

Can't you people understand that regardless of whether each of you individually likes them or not, as a whole they are absolutely the hottest commodity the NHRA has to offer? Of course they are going to dote over the 4 cars responsible for putting 60% of the fans in those seats to begin with.

Don't you ever watch NASCAR? All you ever hear about it Tony Stewart, the Hendrick cars, and Dale JR. When was the last time they interviewed Terry Labonte or Todd Bodine or Sterling Marling? Never... because even though they are all household names and everybody knows who they are, nobody came to see them. They came to see Dale JR driving around at the back of the pack.

Face it folks, the NHRA is all about making money, and they damn well know where their bread is buttered.

X2. People need to show some respect. John Force Racing has brought ALOT of engineering and modernism to the sport. Not to mention a TON of safety stuff. If you dont like the TV show, then use that remote that you have crammed up your ass and change the fuckin channel! Im sure MTV has some great shit on!

That's it in a nutshell. Went to Gatornationals and Force was the only one who consistently had the fans making noise.

I'd get an extra hours sleep if they would stick to racing..bad enough we're stuck with NHRA, but leave the human interest stories out of it
Make it a how of only racing and you will get zero viewers that aren't already drag racing fans. No new viewers = no sponsors. No sponsors, no race. NHRA already gets bumped by ping pong tournaments and spelling bees, you really want them to become even LESS important?

This isn't hard to figure out.
