  • The 16-time NHRA champion John Force once left tickets for Elvis Presley to attend a drag race. Dale Earnhardt Jr. tries to get the full story but in true Force fashion, it goes awry.

    I’ve been an NHRA fan and a John Force fan for a very long time, and I’m proud to say I STILL love me some John Force...THEE NICEST man in the NHRA garage. I watched him step away from his awning while there was some heavy duty work going on on his car, into the pouring down rain to give a hug to an autistic little girl in Gainesville a few years back, and that sight left me a John Force fan for life.
    God blesses those that’ll go out of their way for the less fortunate...

      Thanks for posting this, there's a ton of people with similar stories sharing them here as well. Never followed NHRA but I've always known who John Force was because he was so dominate in the sport he he always made the highlight shows. Hockey was my main sport, and we were blessed with our best players also being great people that went out of their way to make a fans day.
      The stories about Force are awesome, being able to tell stories like you did there makes it sooooo easy to be a fan of a driver and a sport. People that couldn't care less about funny cars will still be really interested in stuff like what you said and be open to hearing more about the sport if those are the kind of people involved in it. That's how you grow a sport, a fanbase and make a positive impact on the world.

We took the rear-end out of it and won the manufacturer's Championship that weekend on Firestones. In 2004 Goodyear had a shootout that was fierce with Firestone. Reminds me of the Firebird I got when I was 16. By the way, I met my first wife when I was 16. Yea, and it's kinda funny now that I think about it, the high dive was sixteen feet at the local public swimming pool..". That dude is fired up!!

      Sadly yes! That's why I struggle with the concept of drag racing. Any jack ass can hit the gas when the light turns green and win! All a man or lady needs is a damn good car to do it in. Come on, this dude should be retired and counting his money, instead he's still drag racing at age 70 which is my point its too easy. Stick that old fart in a stock car or Indy car, he would've retired 25 years ago!

    John Force is the very best. He is totally down to earth in spite of being the best ever drag racer. I wept when Dale died and will do the same if I out live John.

    We really enjoyed your video!! My husband has a room FULL of your Dad's collectibles. We both spent a lot of time finding them.
    And, we have some of yours too. They mean a lot to us! Elvis was my wife"s teen-age idol and we still listen to his music. I used to watch NASCAR races all the time and also Busch races. Enjoyed your show today!!!

    Does John Force really age! I want 1/100th of that energy if I live that long.

    John Force is a character..There was a time when his mouth could keep up with his thoughts...No more, but he is still entertaining and interesting.
    Oh and he's probably the greatest drag racer in history.
