John Force has surpassed every other driver in the entire history of drag racing and has surpassed just about all the other drivers in the history of all Motorsports! He's the goat of all goats!
I don't think John was impressed about her interrupting when she said. Hello, we're disrupting everything. What she meant to say was hello. I'm interrupting john force and i'm embarrassed as hell
All I can say is WOW! This guy is amazing. I have been a fan of John Force far as long as I can remember and a huge drag racing fan. I have nothing but respect for that guy. God bless him and his family.
One word comes to mind when talking about this man: Legend! both on and off the track! God! Bless him and his family. hopefully many more years of safe wins for him and his team. 🤘🤘
John Force and Clay Millican are OGs and they energy they exude outweighs race wins or anything else. Force and Rick Ware/Clay Millican know how to harness social media and bringing in new fans not just to the teams, but to the sport in general. This is awesome content.
out of all the drag racing greats, Force is #1. i remember when i was a kid(im over 50) every single run John was on fire, or in the wall. you could put your money on Bernstein to win, but Force was the show. he's come a long ways, and is still getting after it, simply amazing.
Absolutely amazing what this man has done. He has survived setbacks, injuries, defeats and continued challenges. He is the classic example of passion, dedication, intense desire and never ending striving to be better. John Force is not just a Drag Racing driver, he is the heart of Drag Racing.
I've been trying to catch up with John.. Since'91.. I'll never do it but it keeps me peddling that throttle and striving for the next championship. John Force to me is the standard of NHRA drag racing drivers. Every driver should strive for John Force excellence.. Win at any cost. Never look back always look ahead.
That was awesome! In my 40+ years in aerospace industry, I've been in shops all over the world. Great shop tour and interview! JFR's combination of passion, capabilities, and technology is incredible and why John Force is "the man". Still going strong and staring down 75 years old. Very cool!
I'm from the UK, I think the thing I like most about John Force is his enthusiasm. The guy's a thousand years old, been racing since spats were in style and STILL loves it! Not only that but I hear he's a good guy too! I hope he never has to quit. His level of joy and sportsmanship is a beacon to everyone. He shows that hard work and dedication brings success. Long may it continue!
Amazing man and video! He reminds me of Connie Kalitta, where he does everything in house for his aviation business. Very clean work environment for his employees to get there jobs done. Love hear and seeing what he’s up too in the drag racing world. Courtney, you did very well interviewing a legend! Thanks for the tour!
Thank you so much for this interview / tour. The mold was broken after John Force was made. No one else like him. No one. I love this guy to bits and he's been my hero for a very long time. Thank you again and best wishes.
I loved all 13.5 minutes of this video. I knew that John had a big operation, but I didn't know to what extent. Many years ago , John offered me a job when I told him the story of what I and my brother went through just to get to see him at a race. I wish I had taken that job now.
I took my sons to Tex Motoplex, 20 something years ago, walked up to watch the guys work on the car. John walked out and took the time to talk to everyone as much as he could. My kids thought that was the Coolest thing ever. Never forgot that. Thank you Mr. Force
During the 80's John Force regularly came down to race in Bradenton at the Snowbird Nationals as well as other events and looked forward to seeing him each and every year. I managed to sneak a Polaroid of him reading the local newspaper because I was too chicken to ask. His success and perseverance in racing, business family and many accomplishments is absolutely awesome. John Force, in my book is definitely the GOAT!!
I actually meet John in Chicago years ago n he was a true amazing guy very nice man.... if you ever talk to him he will absolutely have time n talk and answer questions.. really good people...... love you John n good luck..... 👍
One of my favorite things about YTube is seeing both sides of people like Courtney. She's cool, calm, collected and professional when need be and an every day normal, potty mouth talking person when she doesn't "need" to be professional 😜 And John Force (decades ago) actually took the time to step up into the back of my friend's van to autograph his Harley that had a perfectly hand and air brush painted likeness of John on the rear fender. His race suite (and two cars that are on the gas tanks) are so detailed you can read the sponsor patches and stickers...
Courtney your stunning and great tour through the amazing John Force Racing empire ..... John your beyond words and looking for a great 2024 season !! Dean
JOHN FORCE IS THE G.O.A.T. of drag racing that’s for sure! Fan friendly LEGEND!!!! IMO John Force has made by far the biggest impact on what NHRA drag racing is today. From selling memorabilia to attracting credible sponsors and actually racing he’s THE KING. Awesome interview Courtney!!! FloRacing could not have picked a better person in the world to do the job you do that’s for sure!!! #ShakeandBake #CourtneyEnders is freaking GRRRRREATTTTT
Great interview, this shows the difference in how racing organizations are run. Force is all about what's good for Force racing where Don Schumacher was what's good for Schumacher racing and also helping out other racer teams.
I think Force has become more relatable and likeable in recent years, more like he was earlier in his career. By the 2000s he had become a caricature of himself. The seemingly limitless resources from Castrol, Ford, etc., the TV show- it seemed like like the more he acted like a clown, the more success he had. But then cracks started to show (Coil leaving on frosty terms was an early indication), and eventually he found himself having to make tough financial and personnel decisions like he probably hadn't had to do since the 80s. He seems to have gotten back to basics and figured out what he needs to do to keep going and have a successful team even if he's not the center of on-track attention, and I give him a lot of credit for that.
Thanks Courtney for interviewing John Force. I live in Yorba Linda, California and would attend his Christmas events at his Yorba Linda race facility when he used to have them. I know there’s much more space in Indianapolis. 👍
love John bud o mine was at a National after John raced came in stands to watch his daughter n drank beers wit em class guy knows how to treat and keep fans
Crazy good video & interview! I got to meet John at Sonoma (Northern California) late 1980’s. And when i say meet - it was him saying Hi from two feet away … running around his pit area. So fun!
You are the bomb beautiful tube star , and this vlog was an amazing beautiful thing force is the man, 17 going on 18 , Championships amazing 20 would be kool, thanks BigAl California, praise Jesus Christ grace amen amen 🙏
Awesome shop......and i work just around the corner from that facility and even better i reside just a mile and a half from the most famous drag strip in the world!
A tour through this building shows why folks like Clay Millican call some of the teams factory cars. The economies of scale in the purchasing and development of building and running bleeding edge race cars give a huge advantage to these teams. This factory is so large that John doesn’t even know all the employees. With that said, nitro racing is so tough that even with these advantages, the winner on Sunday is still a real contest. All it takes is tractor trailer trucks full of money. And some luck.
Yeah!! Mr. Force you look great 👍 and well thank God for thee Angel's we're with when you had that bad accident at thee drag race I'd meet in Tennessee way years bock in 2001 somewhere around there nice seen you on TH-cam that you look very well but some of there's days I'll visit Tennessee again some of these days you take care and families as well too.
One of the greatest ambassadors of any sport that has ever lived! And with everthing that he has accomplished he still just wants to race.
John Force has surpassed every other driver in the entire history of drag racing and has surpassed just about all the other drivers in the history of all Motorsports! He's the goat of all goats!
I agree
I don't think John was impressed about her interrupting when she said. Hello, we're disrupting everything. What she meant to say was hello. I'm interrupting john force and i'm embarrassed as hell
Most outstanding motorsports human being ever.
@user-rt8ik1ow4i Courtney was doing her job and John is used to women with Type A personalities. He's got three kick ass daughters!
And he did most of it in a Mustang
All I can say is WOW! This guy is amazing. I have been a fan of John Force far as long as I can remember and a huge drag racing fan. I have nothing but respect for that guy. God bless him and his family.
Courtney is the new ambassador of drag racing. Love it and we love her.
One word comes to mind when talking about this man: Legend! both on and off the track! God! Bless him and his family. hopefully many more years of safe wins for him and his team. 🤘🤘
John Force and Clay Millican are OGs and they energy they exude outweighs race wins or anything else. Force and Rick Ware/Clay Millican know how to harness social media and bringing in new fans not just to the teams, but to the sport in general. This is awesome content.

John Force he's a legend 😊 love watching him race 🏁 and his daughters as well 😀 ❤️ 👍
John Force is the GOAT! The sport of drag racing needs his presence both as a driver and a team owner and as an ambassador of the sport.
One of my favorite things about YTube is seeing both sides of people like Courtney.
She's cool, calm, collected and professional when need be and an every day normal, potty mouth talking person when she doesn't "need" to be professional 😜

painted likeness of John on the rear fender. His race suite (and two cars that are on the gas tanks) are so detailed you can read the sponsor patches and stickers...
That's an Amazing shop. I am glad that this Interview was done before John got his Bell Rung.
Much to humble in his old age. He’s my #1 guy since the 80’s. Great driver and owner
Wow what a guy. He’s as impressive as he is humble. Great to see nice people succeed
I love this guy! He is such a BIG part of racing.
John and Team sure have evolved into something incredible. Wow !!
It sure has been an interesting ride watching this gang since the early 80's !!

I honestly think he doesn't know how famous he is. His heart is in racing and almost nothing else.
JOHN FORCE IS THE G.O.A.T. of drag racing that’s for sure! Fan friendly LEGEND!!!! IMO John Force has made by far the biggest impact on what NHRA drag racing is today. From selling memorabilia to attracting credible sponsors and actually racing he’s THE KING.

John is an Icon and a self made man due to his extreme grit and determination to succeed. He is an example for all of us. Much respect!!
Funny at 2:32 the guy on the right side of the car was telling the videographer to cut filming. Probably because they were working on some tech...
