    From a business stand point I think if he could get her a championship the sponsors would beat his door down, more than they already do. And I think he would do what he had to, for that to happen. My 2 cents.

    The only time Zippy was competitive last year was when he was tuning the car and I think Force saw the writing on the wall and I don't think that it set too well with Medlin either.

    tough question

    simply... no

    little bit of thought, John's getting up there, and probably wont race much longer.
    He is werking on the girls brand, so it could be a good business move.

    You've won the Funny Car Championship FOURTEEN times.
    Any other drag racers that can say that? In ANY class of drag racing?
    When I used to drag race, I remember the saying
    "There is no race for second place"
    John already caused some "friction" last year when he **ALLEGEDLY** "Threw" a race....If you think John Force would "Throw" a race, for anyone, his daughter, his mom, his dad, his wife, his team mate, you don't know John Force.

    I have raced against my dad (dirt late models) and he's no different than anyone else on the track, we don't cut each other slack, though i make sure not to rub on him any because i have to do all the work to fix them both! Force Vs Force, they both want to win and both want to beat each other more than they want to beat anyone else, its bragging rights! No one "lets" anyone win in a race car, no matter who it is.
    If you can't stand behind our troops, feel free to stand in front of them!

    If Ashley is to go anywhere on her own abilities she needs to work on reaction times--when she loses she was beaten by a hole-shot--the .1++ times won't cut it.
