John Force

[doozer]

did anybody see his wreck today? thank god he's still alive. he was lucky to get away with two broken legs and one arm. if somebody finds the video, post in here, and i'll continue do look for it in the mean time.

sounds like he was still the same old Force. as he was getting in the chopper to be air lifted out, he was barking orders to his team, asking where his interview was, and wondering if he won or not.

here's to a speedy recovery to one of the most charismatic guys i have ever had the pleasure of meeting in all of racing.

NHRA News: Force undergoing surgery following top-end collision in Dallas (9/23/2007)

Hard to watch that stuff.

It was a really bad crash, he is very lucky he did not get hurt worse. Wish him a speedy recovery

That crash was terrible. I'm a big NHRA fan. My father is a former Super Street Champion so I grew up around the racetrack.
He was really lucky his part of the car broke off though.

I watched it, that was a terrible wreck. I felt sorry for Ashley, she had to watch her dad have a terrible wreck all while she's in the excact same series. I'm sure it will take a while for them to get over this

Yeah that was bad. Got to hand it to him though. Asking "did I win" while they were putting him in the helicopter is classic. Giving directions, telling everybody what to do. That's John. He will be fine. Don't think he'll finish the season though.

The Force's have been through alot with the death of one of thier racers not long ago. Speedy recovery to John!
