He didn't look very happy about it did he. She could have beat him straight up with I think an 83. Looked a little funny to me and I am a big JFR fan. 1000 round wins in 500 races would have been something to talk about!

Re: Force A 1.70 light then up in smoke!

She's the points leader and this is her third finals in a row. I don't think it was given to her either. A big congrats to Ashley on her first win.

Maybe we'll see her on Letterman! Congrats to Ashley. Hopefully this churns out POSITIVE media attention.

I don't think he was happy with his (or his car's) performance in the final. He would have liked to get that 1000th round win at the 500th race.

Scripted...
but who here can say honestly they wouldn`t consider doing the same (at least the first time) to get the kid and the sport some PR.

Re: Force A 1.70 light then up in smoke!

Do either of you know John or anyone at JFR? Probably not. I watched Ashley make a very shaky start in Super Comp several years ago at Firebird with a very nervous Dad watching. Your thoughts that this was a dive are total BS.
You might want to take notice that Ashley has extended her #1 position in FC after two previous final round performances without any evidence of JFR diving.
I try to keep my replies here positive, but you are idiots -

Re: Force A 1.70 light then up in smoke!

I think Johnny looked really pissed and I thought it looked like he was lettin' Coil have it when he pulled up at the end. Johnny ain't given nothin' away and he sure as hell didn't give away that final. The reason I think he is so mad is because he knows how folks will talk about him giving it away. He wanted to race her for it and it just didn't work out that way. Live with it, Ashley got her first win. If you like her be happy, if you don't like her don't be happy. Just be glad you got to see Drag Racing history be made.

BTW, Johnny didn't have a 1.70 light, it was .170.
