John Force and his incredible family are all heart. We at the Auto Club have had the sincere privilege and honor to partner with JFR for 25 years. There are no finer people we know. They are family to us and we love them dearly.
This is a wonderful comment to see! We sure do love them here at our house!
Rob Wade Thank you for your support of JFR and NHRA.
,,,,thank you Mr. Rob Wade......It is grand to honor a living legend.......John Force.........
Rob Wade.... My sincere Thank You, to yourself and Auto Club for your continued support of JFR and particularly of John's son in-law, Robert.
John and family have certainly been a tribute to the sport of Drag Racing and NHRA itself through their unwavering commitment to it, and it's been the unwavering support of Sponsors like Auto Club of California who have made it possible for them to do so.
I salute you, sir and Auto Club for "being there" through "thick and thin" all these years... and I think it's indicative of your company itself. Thank You.

John just made this grown guy tear up.. Amazing guy!! Amazing family!!
Amazing story!!
The best, simply the best stories in racing. America LOVES JFR! Who else had to catch it up to hold back the tears when John told about Brittany winning the World 2017. All John's girls are awesome,, their DNA and a fantastic group of team members have always made drag racing history. We pray for their continued success and especially their safety. This world cannot afford losing any more of our hero's, in any sport.
I've always enjoyed his interviews after a race. He's pure excitement
Such a proud dad bought tears to my eyes
Bless John, this is a true example of what a family man is supposed to be.
,,,I , as an American born in 1951,,,,,learned my future passion in 1965..............Skilled and driven,,,today I am a Machinist and still learning ..................John is all out honest with his passion for racing............his energy is endless,,,,,,,,,,,,That is why he is loved in the life of Drag Racing........................No other is like him...........
Awesome character, wears me out just listening to him! All heart, genuine energised human. I’d be delighted with a tenth of his energy. He autographed my cap at Topeka in 1996, I’d travelled from UK to see the NHRA show; he took time from the winners photo shoots to answer my request. True showman. I wish him and his family well for the future.
John you have the biggest heart of anybody I know, and you passed it on to your kids!! Love hearing your stories!
Heck of a story love him or hate him john force is a hell of a father and a true legend in drag racing
Remember running into John at a Restaurant in the late 90’s. He was at a big table all by him self. I went and talked to him. We had things to talk about for about 10 min. Then his family came in, I got up and left them to have much valued family time. The girls were little then, the oldest was maybe twelve........ they grow up fast!!!!! Great video John......
BTW..... If you get a chance to talk to John for more than five minutes one on one....... bump into him again somewhere, he remembers you and talks to you like an old friend. I used to work for the water agency in Yorba Linda and bumped into him a few times after the restaurant chat, didn’t expect him to remember my face because of all the faces he sees everywhere.... he did every time and was just a very warm guy. Class act dosen’t begin to describe him.....
Walking out to back parking in Indy, John comes by on his scooter and told my GF, that's John Force, he heard me and turned around, came back and just talked for about ten minutes. Amazing guy and we talked about my GF first experience at the track that day. He was so excited for her experience. BTW, you will never get an experience like that with any NASCAR driver. NHRA drag racing is an experience that everyone should give a try.
JOHN, I really enjoyed your "History of Force " . Especially talking about Ashley not knowing how to drive a stick shift ! And it's all because your running at 300 mph even when your not in your Hot Rod .
John is a very good storyteller.He's animated & humorous.Yet, he balances it out in a heartwarming way that makes you want to listen to him for hours. Hope to see you guys racing in Houston in October.🏁
ACTUALLY brought a tear to my eye.
God BLESS you all, Force family.
MASSIVE 'crush' on Brittany & Courtney. We ALL love you!! X
Choked me up too. He's a good dad
Y⁵⁵r TV þþt
The whole family is a true class act.
God broke the mold when he created John Force. He knew this world could only handle one like him and that's why I love this guy so much. I've been a fan from the beginning John...Love you man ! ! !
Isn't that the truth?! How can anyone not love the man?!
John your girls grew up with a race manic like yourself .that started from the very bottom of. Hard times .but look at all the good god handed you .once you got the right people to talk your love of drag racing to the highest levels. And it is also in your girls blood . Just like it’s in yours.im now 60 years old and watched you many,many years you truly are one of a kind . Thanks John .force and family for all the memories.as a kid my dad built stock mods for small dirt tracks next to reading pa. In the 60,s .my home town drag strip is maple grove . I know you know that track .last ^hing john .you truly do have a great heart .and truly care about fans and good people . Awsum .
My favorite racer of all time, he and all his family!
John Force on the Dale jr podcast from a year or so ago is must see stuff. He was hilarious.
John Force has a way of speaking, even when he rambles, that is really, really entertaining. I could listen to him all day.
Heartwarming. The best of your great achievements are your daughters, your wife and the love of God. Long before raising my own daughters, I remember watching you at OCIR in the Wendy’s Citation. You stuck with it like no other. Great job John, mad respect for you. Keep going! ✊🏻
I love these stories. It's great as a racing fan to have interacted and gotten to know the Force family over the years. It was a joy to introduce my daughter to the sport in Las Vegas last November. She still talks about her experience of meeting Ashley, hanging out with Brittany in the winner's circle, and giving John a hug when he was on his scooter at the end of the day. Thank you for sharing this! We love your family.
The great part of this story is that the adventure isn't over yet. Can't wait to see the movie.
Bless you John and family from Down Under Australia.
John, We will never tire of hearing you tell the stories of your life before, during and all that goes with racing. You are a favorite in The Miller household! This is Tammie Miller typing and we are in our 50's. My husband Tim wants a model of the Castrol Funny car so bad! We aren't far from the St. Louis track and we plan to come see your museum one day soon to hopefully get your autograph. Keep these fantastic videos coming! We love them! Thanks for taking the time to give us a story! Peace
When ever I see or hear anything about John Force, I always think " Man, old John Force is by far the coolest there is" !
Truly the first family of the NHRA, no disrespect to the other family teams. We have already seen the first two generations put their indelible mark in the history of the NHRA and we have the third generation working their way up with John's grandkids. This is a true dynasty in professional auto racing. I have been following him since he was a struggling match racer. I met him and his family may times over the years at the former Raceway Park in Old Bridge, NJ. The track was sort of his East Coast home. I remember him telling stories of when money was tight doing odd jobs for the Napp family (the owner of the track) just to get enough money to race the following weekend. He always loves to talk to the fans and you can see that it rubbed off on the girls. I remember one time at the Summernationals they had to literally drag him away from the crowd line to test the car before the next round. He is a one of a kind character, and we all love him for that.
Hey John, you are a good father.....
Keep doing your best for the family business....
Some of the achievements of your family and business success are your thanks for your dedication as a father and racer...
And God Bless You...
John Force you are my age I always knew you are a true miracle to racing your life is special to the world to see you are so grounded to this dangerous sport when I was younger my Dad helped sponsor a dirt track sportsman's car I have the best memories of those times plus my best friend drove a modified car Thank you Sir you are a True legend of the Sport.
I involved both my kids in drag racing as well, we had a blast. The Force family at Thanksgiving must really be something else. Now that is how I describe wealth. Thanks for the memories !
I'm not the biggest NHRA follower, but I could listen to this great Dad talk about his girl's all day.
May the Force be with us for ever.
OMG..John and his family are the epitome of drag racing. There'll never be another racer like John. Love him to pieces
Thanks John for sharing your family with us in this video. It’s been fun watching you and you family race all these years. Used to go to the Summer Nationals at Raceway Park in Englishtown NJ before moving here to Socal. Hope to see you all back on the track soon. Glad you’re staying safe with this covid stuff.
AlexT.
Ashley still my favorite, she is to die for, that big smile oh dear lord.
I have been a John force fan since that day on the road in to the US nationals when me and my buddy Greg passed John Force on the way out. John was on the side of the road talking to somebody. I told my buddy Greg that that was John force back there and he turned the truck around right over the railroad tracks. We came back and got out of the truck and JOHN pointed to us and said “I’ll be with you in just a second”. Me and Greg waited about 10 minutes and after he got done talking to the gentleman he turned to us and signed our items. I had a hat that had Shirley Muldowney’s Signature on it and he noticed it LOL. He signed his name bigger. I have been a fan ever sense. I always ALWAYS root for John and his daughters!
Well, I sure am glad that aging has finally slowed your speech down. I really enjoyed listening and watching your story about your life and beloved daughters. God does have a reason, and it shows how much you appreciate what he has given you.
I hope this is a start to a bunch of sit down stories from John. I never get tired of hearing him talk about the past and how he and the whole family got started in racing.
You will always be # 1 to me Mr Force. Every thing you touch becomes #1 even your children. How proud you must be.
I miss the Force cars on the track this year but fully respect John's decision to sit this one out. One thing is certain, they will all come out hungry for wins in 2021.
Dear John,
It's good to see you are well.
I don't care what they say,
I love listening to you talk!
I can listen to you for hours. Lol.
Yours truly,
And your " forever fan"
Phillip the third.
Awesome dad,so humble and are successful,bless your heart,proud papa.
As a father that was really great for me. Thanks Champ loved this story.
I have followed John for years and never get tired of hearing him talk.
Love this mans passion and emotion..
I enjoyed that story! As a guy with four grown daughters who also have taken on roles normally done by men. It does my heart good to hear other dad's stories.
Love this guy! He was kind enough to sign autographs and take a picture with my 3 children, total class act!
I have followed you for years. I love your energy and excitement. Your daughters are amazing as well. Thank you for all the memories.
Grew up watching John,Don and Shirly...you have no idea how much some of us enjoy listening to you! You need another decal on your cars/trailers LEGEND!
Dear John, so many generations grew up knowing your name. Your daughters are all good decent ladies with that will to win. We all can't get enough of the Force name and of your family so please, keep 'em comin????
A friend of mine has worked at the NHRA for decades. She's retired now and I asked her, about a month ago, "who's your favorite driver"? With out hesitation... "Oh John Force... his energy... there's just something very special about him"
John is the GOAT !! Hands down, I’m 48 and I have been a fan for many MANY years and I’ve always said that John is a inspiration and roll model for lots of people young and old, this world needs more John Forces in it !!!
it's hard not to tear up when you see brittany winning that championship
I brought my cousin and my son out to see y’all run at Atlanta this past weekend. It was the first top fuel event they had ever been to. We had a blast and actually spotted you and Brittany in the pits a couple times! Thanks for an awesome show and such an awesome family story! We will definitely be coming to more events!
I'm 56 yrs old been watching you on and off sence I don't know when. Long story short. What a great thing this video. Thank you so much for sharing this story. Honestly best vid I have witnessed ever on youtube
They all did a great job. I have always said that I would love to jump in a TF dragster but actually doing it is a different story. I've been in some fast cars but it takes a lot of guts to strap into one of those cars. Respect to you and the ladies.
hahaha you're a nut John Force. Great stories you have to tell. We all love our children and proud of them for doing nothing more than outliving us but all of your girls have given you bragging rights that few will come close to matching. You're a blessed man sir!
Wow John, Autumn looks like Brittany! You have beautiful daughters, and it’s so wonderful to see your pride in all of them. I have 3 grown daughters, too, and I understand how you feel; I would trade them for anything and I’m sure you wouldn’t either. Keep doing what you’re doing, and your fans will always be here cheering you on!! Much love 🏁🏁🏁🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Good job John!
I've been a fan of yours since way back to Orange County International Raceway and the Winter Nationals.
I can listen to your stories for days. Thanks for all your efforts, all that you do.
.
What a nice story John!! It's all about family!!
Yo John , I got something to say to u Big Boy , U my man are by far the Top Dog Dad in the whole NHRA world, without a doubt. Wish I could've seen this daughter editorial sooner than now. Anyway, I'm a proud father of a gear head daughter myself, so to have a daughter or I should say daughters that u actually taught to drive a top fuel race car at 300 plus mph ,must be the greatest thing on earth. U and Laurey sure did one hellova job raising all 4 of em. Love ya and miss the hell outta ya. Man , I'll never forget being in ur pit after hrs of the qualifying runs on , Friday and Saturday nights. The stories I heard from U and other drivers were unforgettable, so thanks for the good times and the memories, John. Get well and back to the track soon, ur #1 fan Bryan Sandreth
John, I have been watching you race for decades and I love your team. A couple years ago I took my grandson to the NHRA race here in Phoenix and he LOVED it. Thanks for entraining us for years and look forward to more years of the Force Team.
I could listen to John talk for hours! What a character! #GOAT
I love JFR stories but even moreso now since we have a void in racing this year with all the crazy, God bless John for giving little racing stories to help get by till they're back on the track.

'67 still keep up with you... several have passed.... ..Love to chat at a race sometime ...... glad to see this career path worked out well for you. Stay Well, Drive Safe.

That was awesome!!!! Thank you for sharing. I got tears in my eyes too. :-)
I have been a fan of yours since before St. Terese, Canada, your first event win... I think it is called St. Terese. Now listening to you talk about your daughters, I'm a bigger fan. The sport needs people like your family.
A few years ago my company with me were the Force's HVAC company, all their houses and the race shop in Yorba Linda. Adria runs the show and couldn't be nicer! Met and talked with Austin Coil, the man loves to talk!
Love what your doing and what you’ve done for drag racing. You are inspiration for all. You have a great family.
As usual...an amazing video from the man himself...love this series.
Hung with you all at lots of tracks over the last 35 years! Miss you all, 2022 gonna be great like old times!
John force I have been watching you in nhra since the 1990s and would love to meet you and god blees you and your family the best driver of all time
You are amazing John, well done on your life story with your daughters, put a tear to my eyes. You are truly a great guy deep down inside a proud man at that. :)
What a family thats awsome seeing them staying together and not only that do what they love doing
I can still remember you and Gary Densahm ( teachers pet) at Surfers Paradise in 1974. All the best.
The Force family is the 1st family of Drag Racing! GOD BLESS ALL OF YOUR FAMILY AND CREW MEMBERS
Abe Lincoln, Elvis Presley, Buzz Aldrin, The Beatles, and John Force
Mr. Force you have lived an amazing life, you and your family. Just think tho, it is not over yet!
John force you're an icon..... I truly look up to you what you've done in the sport and in the industry phenomenal..
Its my dream to watch an NHRA stage , and of course meet the Force family.
Beautiful family John. Spend every moment with them that you can.
john force in australia was young but remember love coming to vegas to watch him race what a guy took time to austograph a oil pan for me a real family man congrats to you and your family and team from downunder
You are the best of all time Johnny,love the girls to.Your family rocks dude
👍👍👍👍🇨🇦I always loved to watch Force Racing. This really helps on a rainy day John. I just wish I had the opportunity to see you live. Thank you John and family
John force is a true hero in this sport and a regular guy the whole family is awesome. I've got some great memories
Just found this channel and like others who’ve commented before me... yeah I had a tear in my eyes too. There’s just something about John Forces “purity” that is so very special. Even my wife who could care less about racing in general... stops to watch when a “Force” is racing cuz she too just loves John. I think that says it all.
Hope we see JFR back soon.
Loved this,
Been a fan since the Brut Force days,,,
My Dad raced Latemodles back in the day, he never went to watch me race Sportsmans, when I put my Daughter Shelby in a Consistency Racing Truck and her first time out at 14 years old she got 2nd place, the next week she won, my Dad didn't go watch her in person but he would call me at midnight on Saturdays to find out how she did,
I feel your passion both for racing and watching your kid(s) Race and Win, Shelby went on a winning streak straight outta the gate winning just about every time she hit the track, and it wasn't kids she was racing against, she was beating grown men, she won so much that they came up to me wanting to buy her Truck, not to race it but to keep her out of it, they even went to the track owners where we raced at and tried to get her banned from racing against them, they wanted her to race in the 10 and under class (that had a adult co pilot),
Guess so they had a shot at a win,
TRUE STORY
my health went down hill and we had to stop racing but I still have her Truck and promised her we would go back racing when I get better and can get her back out there, now she want to go
Drag Racing,
Any Advise??? LOL
Love the Force family, my favourite racers
Your the best John. Watching you for years .
I could listen to John force stories forever god bless everyone at at jfr keep well and healthy and safe always
@@philmontejano5971 what has this got to do with listening to John force stories?
Love the Force family
Great stories! Thanks for sharing!
No one can tell a story better than John. He always speaks from the heart with an abundance of enthusiasm, emotion and animation. If there was a list of role models to look up to, John Force's name should be at the top.
I had one of the absolute most special experiences ever in my life when I got to meet my all time FAVORITE dragon racing driver! It was at the NHRA championship competition in Commerce GA. I have followed him for a
long time. It was a thrill to meet him. I wish I could have spent more time with him his crew and especially his family; they are ALL fantastic!!!! I am 73 years old and began my love of drag racing when my Daddy used to take me to the competitions at Spartanburg South Carolina Drsg Strip. Then we would go to a place my friends and I used to call Blacktop - illegal as hell street racing- and I would stand between to cars and flag them off. Mr. Force you staid the course believed in your dream instilled the values of never giving up into your family friends and crew and gave people like me a chance to dream because of you. I hope I get to go somewhere and watch you and your daughters race again before I die. I salute you and hug you with my heart daily! God knew I would need these memories to hold on to and watching you helped them come true!!!!!!!
John Force is such a cool, cool guy, I have met him in, Joliet RT66, that guy is to awesome, and the fact that his daughters have followed his lead, is even more spectacular, GOD BLESS THE FORCE FAMILY !!!
