Great stuff. Good to see the early coverage with Steve Evans. Man I sure miss those days.  |

Re: Force - The One Story You Probably Never Heard
The you tube video was cool as well... all of us who have drag raced for any length of time have done similar "stupid things"

Re: Force - The One Story You Probably Never Heard
That is just awesome! Really is encouraging to read too knowing that someone as great as John Force is in the sport started off that way too. Makes all these peanut butter sandwiches (no jelly) I'm eating worth it!

Re: Force - The One Story You Probably Never Heard
That wasn't just another Force interview, that IS the John Force interview, summed up his life in just that one video.
Was doing stupid things? He still is doing stupid things, that is why we love him!

Re: Force - The One Story You Probably Never Heard
No matter how many stories you read about John it's still hard to believe how far he went to pursue his dream. The guy is a champ in every sense of the word.

Re: Force - The One Story You Probably Never Heard
What an enjoyable article. Nah there ain't no movies in Drag Racing.
Imagine just how many stories that one man has stored in his brain and multiply it by Hundreds.

An added bonus is checking out Laurie Force at the end of the vid.
