    Robert is the one to watch this weekend.... As for Ashley, Dad getting busted up could be motivation for her.... If so, look out>>>!! Just what Funny Car needs, a whole fleet of competitive JFR cars again.... Remember when it was Force, Pedregon, and Densham?????

    Yup, I don't think Ashley's car is detuned too far by the way she's been running. She had a good shot at going rounds the day John crashed.

    Well those .130 RT's bit her in the final against TP. Got to give it to her on the starting line. She can cut .130 lights all day and does. All in all I thought she did pretty well and did a pro job of handling that top end fire in the second round.

    John Force getting his cars mixed up in the TV interview, pricelsss.

    Vintage Force if I ever saw it.

    Keep in mind ol' John is problee' still on pain killers. I speak from experience trying to go back to work (maybe before I should have) after an accident & still on pain killers. As clear headed as I thought I was, the simple mistakes I made told the real story. (Better living through chemicals).

    He said he was 'on drugs' and apologized.(not that an apology was needed)
    A mere mortal would have been quite embarassed but John just rolls along.

    What about Neff's first run in competition?

    Takes off and KAPOWIEEEE!!!!!! big banger, now he knows how he sometimes made Scelzi feel.

    Well Ashley had her usual poor RT in the second round but at least she got outran as well instead of losing by another holeshot. She still seems to have the 'deer in the headlights' look to me but all in all I think she did pretty well in her first season considering all the things that JFR went through this year.

    Ashley Forces final grade for her first season in FC...............C+


    And for the Mike Neff thing, I can see that there werent any other candidates to choose from after all like Phil Burkhart!!!!!!!!!!!

    So will this be the end for John or will he race again?Ashley did well in Vegas except for the race that counted.Was quite something to see the support the Forces have,standing ovation each time John went down the track.I am sure there merchandise sales went up as well.

    I think she did great regardless this season. She's been on fire, blown up and crashed. Had a teammate die. Watched her dad get flown away in an air ambulance. Not too bad for anyone in their rookie season. I guarantee you Whit Bazemore would have been crying like a twelve year old girl all season had this been him..wait.....he cries every season about everything.
