Does anyone know exactly where the funds end up, or who/ what is the beneficiary of the money received? I've always been curious if the NHRA has a funnel for the money directly to Children's Hospital or perhaps another meaningful charity.

Watched the video and I didn't see where Force roughed up an official. Looks to me like the official got in his personal space with his hand and Force just moved it out of his way. Gotta love when the rich fight over nothing...hahahaha. Pedregon was firing up Force though and he should get a fine for that.

My two cents...... Team cars have always helped others on their team. Force and Pedregon did together years ago when Tony raced for him.

If you fine one, fine them both. I didn't see John do anything to an official either. I did see Tony just about dare him to swing at him, that was just as bad in my opinion. Poor professionalism for Tony.

I'd like to know where the fine money goes also.

The reality is you are just 2 team owners, and a handful of sponsors away from not having a FC class at all.

I agree also that ESPN was reporting on what happened, but when you go to Force after the run to tattle on what someone else said, that's getting a little kindergarten like.

Perhaps someone should introduce Force's daughters to Bo Kenney and Paul Cambria?

Drag racing on TV. Part of a run, commercial, interview a driver, commercial, part of a run, interview with drivers. It's like watching GOLF. THey need to show more Sportsman racing. That is exciting.
