    Met John Force at Nationals at Englishtown, NJ. The boys and I stood in line for about an hour and the it got rained out. We returned the next day, got in line Mr. Force noticed my son and called us up to the front, gave my son three signed pistons, my son told
    Mr. Force your going to win Mr. Force! Yes he did set another track record. Great guy.

    I met John Force at Detroit Autorama some years ago. He was drunk as hell!! We had a pro mod car in our display and the owner wanted JF to sign his car so he came over and tripped and fell on the car. I could not believe what I had just saw! We helped him stand up. He signed the decklid and walked away! He is a wild dude! 😁😁😁😁😁

    I recall many many years ago watching John Force win a race. He hasn't won races and I recall was losing what sponsors he had. He ran a national race and he said that without that win he probably wouldn't have been able to race. I think that day he was the happiest man on the planet.

    Year after year he had some of the worst luck then it all turned around after that 1st win in Canada ?

  • @rondellschuyler7074
    @rondellschuyler7074 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Teams must own their own shops and fabricate, parts machining, paint etc. They must do basically everything in house to save millions of dollars, it all adds up. Fast. That is how these teams like force,Schumacher and other are able to race year after year. Professional drag racing takes sponsors that can spend millions of dollars. Teams must also run a tight budget. Without that racing as a whole would be very small and different than what it currently is today. I like the fact John Force was a truck driver. Being a truck driver myself, i know John force knew the meaning of sacrifice and hard work long before he went full time drag racing.

  • @danoc51
    @danoc51 3 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    There's more to this shop than I knew about! It is very impressive that JF started out as a truck driver and built the fortune on just drag racing. All the other big team owners have other businesses that keep them racing. That said, we see here Exhibit 'A' as to why NHRA can not always fill a 16-car field at a big national event. How do you compete with Force, Kalitta or Shumacher? In the 1970's, Orange County International Raceway would put on local events with 64 and even 100 funny cars racing...nothing but funny cars all night long! Now, with Covid limiting attendance and the number of events, there will likely be a lot of sponsor money pulling out of drag racing, not to mention the thousands of $60 seats no longer filled. NHRA needs to somehow pull back on the money it takes to race. This would most likely require limitations in the engine, clutch and body departments departments. I would rather see a 32-car field of 270 MPH cars than 15 330-MPH cars. Rather than having one pro car per 10 million population, it would be good to see a couple of FC and TF cars from your average town of 100,000 people. The number of drag strips and events would grow exponentially. This is not to take away from John Force and his team...I have the highest regard for them. But a lot of us enjoyed the 1970's and 1980's much better than we do today's racing.

    • @nitrousninja882
      @nitrousninja882 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Nitro racing hasn't been good since they went to 1000 foot racing. Drag racing needs to be done on a quarter mile, 1320 feet. They should have slowed the cars down after Scott Kalitta's crash rather than shorten the tracks. Smaller engines, smaller blowers, less nitro or narrower slicks. Maybe even just fuel injection and no superchargers. 270 mph cars sounds good to me.

      TV companies do this all the time, ticking boxes. In the 1980s in the UK, we craved TV airtime to promote drag racing. The BBCs science weekly, Tomorrow’s World, put on a feature where Dennis Priddle (our best approximation to John Force) produced a trick top methanol dragster for one of the program’s presenters to drive. Three guys and one gal in the team, guess who got to drive. It was entertaining but painful to watch as a lifelong fan of the sport. You can see the strain on Dennis and his team, only offset by the large envelope of cash the BBC probably gave them. All credit to Maggie Philbin for giving it her best but .... well you judge for yourselves... th-cam.com/video/Wk9VZPWSHrM/w-d-xo.html

      @@MS-Patriot2 I would like to think the BBC will wake to woke, but I don't think they will. They have just about killed Dr Who with it, but no one seems to care.

    I have always loved the sport though I've never felt inclined to participate in it professionally myself. Although I can certainly appreciate NHRA rules in regard to safety, I've found many rules of standardization too restrictive for my taste. Although the extreme hp is enticing, nobody can claim that what's going on with the clutches is efficient use of it. Hybrids and electrics are already here and have proven the advantage of their finely controlled torque, but who wants to hear nothing? My thoughts are that if the sport wants to survive the best way would be with a new hybrid class that uses a mil to make the juice to the motors. I think present speeds could be surpassed with less brute force and more finite control, but without giving up the engines we all love to hear. It would be like taking it to another level; and everybody is already using computers anyway right? I don't think it's really that big of a stretch but then they say you can always tell the pioneers by the number of arrows in their backs.

    i remember those days when john ran on his own budget and had little to work with but he finally got some sponsors and the rest is history. like some have said, racing at all levels has gotten toooooooo far out of hand for some and it needs to be toned back so more can compete and not just a few that have the sponsors to pay for all the expensive stuff needed. F1 is a prime example and that is why i like indy racing because they all use the same chasis so all are on par and the engines and drivers decid who wins.

    I made it to 15:43 before I hit the mute button. It's a one-sided conversation between a legendary R&D man and someone who looks and sounds like a failed volleyball player. It wouldn't have even occurred to me to annoy anyone inside this legendary shop unless I could produce at least five or six intelligent questions for maybe the janitor.

      What part or "shop tour" did you not understand? It's not an interview. It's a shop tour, you know, "here's where we make engines", here's where we make stickers", "here's some of John's old suits".
