I HAVE FIGURED IT OUT!!!!!!!!!
I guess im not the sharpest tack in the bunch or it would have come to me earlier. JF hires old timers, relatives or newbies because they're cheap.
John came up the hard way and doesnt see fit to pay drivers big bucks when he gives them a chance they probably wouldnt have elsewhere?
Maybe thats why TP left?
:CRY: :eek:
Chit, maybe I should apply!!!!!!:LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:Quote:

Honestly I dont think I have enough gonads to try one of those beasts.
Anyone hear Gary D's interview yesterday. He was talking about his sweep at indy a few years back and said something like " I won all the races and John kept all the money"
se what I mean:D
Driver's get a percentage, just like any hired gun!!!! New drivers are cheap, I like them when they think it's a good deal if you pay their way in!!!!!:LOL: :LOL: :LOL: I'd be happy to split even with my driver-----if he wanted to split the bills, too!!!!Quote:

Not bad this year, freshen 2 engines, one GearVendors Overdrive, one set of gears, two sets of slicks, 250 gallons of E90, 3 chassis dyno sessions, one tranny, two sets of new date belts, one new 28 foot trailer---and some other incidentals.....:eek: :eek: :CRY: :CRY: :CRY: :LOL:Quote:

What's your average RT in a F/C? Ashley is great for the sport. She'll do fine in spite of her critics.
Critic? How about an interested observer? A fan of drag racing and those who try to tame the beast?
Fact is if she doesnt get her britches to push the go pedal a little sooner round wins will be hard to come by. I believe she has the worst average RT in the FC class this year. She'll make it, and look at the bright side, she hasnt trashed any bodies lately and seems to have better control over the car than before.
Well? what now. Will take some nads to get back in that thing after what happened. How will she respond? Kinda questioned the pullout after the wreck until I realized where that chassis came apart and came to the conclusion that an inspection of all JFR's chassis was probably a good idea.
Will she race this weekend? If so, how will she do? Predictions?
I say she`ll run, then get knocked out in the first round like she has most of the year
Maybe with dad hurt its time to "kick it up a notch" . I am sure her car has been tuned down for her steep learning curve.
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). :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
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.
And if she was a guy the grade would be f+:LOL:Quote:

Hey BTD dont get me going again Im trying to give a dose of political correctness here.:whacked:
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.
