Re: Ashely Force to race Funny Car in 2007

O.K. I think I get it, some of you like Ashley and wish her well. Some of you don't like her and don't think she can do it.

Did I leave anybody out? Hey, here's a crazy idea, how about we wait until Tuesday and see what it's really all about? Na......What fun would that be

I'd rather see Kalivoda in a Dragster, but if his only chance of getting a ride is via the Flopper route, he'd get my vote.

The person with a generous sponsor in tow or boat-load of dough.

Hey Justin, they annouced that, what, a year ago? Kinda like big brother overseeing little sis. Dean's been with the family since 96 or so, right? He and his wife 'Run" the Indy shop?

Its been known for some time now. I am not sure how long he's been there but its been a while. As for who runs the Indy shop, I'm not sure.

Just when we were having fun, along comes Reinhart with his silly, level-headed reasoning. j/k, Alan. I couldn't agree more.

LMMFAO!!!!!!

Now that I would like to see! I have yet to see an in-car camera shot of anyone, let alone the veterans of the sport, drive these cars with anything but both hands and the butterfly at a 90° angle, and they would use a third hand if it was available!!!

Please!!!

Joe mentioned the Hawley school and I heard the same. She stumbled and could not get past the shake and complained about this or that and a 42 year old mother of three jumped in the same car/same afternoon and ran
back-to-back 6.20's.

Force racing has been under alot of pressure by Ford Mustang to get her in a Ford Funny Car as Medlen and Hight fans are not buying new Mustangs.
Rumor had it Medlen and Hight are finished after 2007 to make JFR the only father/daughter team.
She will be very successful due to the amount of support. I think she is a pretty young woman who can drive a A/FD well but the flopper seems like it scares her.......
You could put a friggen monkey in a JFR car and it would win.
Let me make sure I've got this straight:

*Anyone can one hand a Fuel Flopper down track under full power?
*Ashley couldn't get a car at Hawley's School past the shake but older women could?
*Medlen and Hight are driving their last year in 2007?
*Medlen and Hight's job was to sell mustangs and it's not working?
*You have detected fear in Ashley that other drivers don't have?
*Primates could drive a JFR Fuel Flopper to a win?

I'll respectfully disagree and just ask if there's a chance John shot your favorite dog?
