Re: Force gets beat--YAHOO
Funny, Force is probably one of the most approachable pro drivers in the sport. The guy has never what it was like to be poor, from his childhood to his years struggling to make it in drag racing.
It's sad how it has become so "fashionable" to dislike a guy like Force. Even funnier is the joy some seem to see from Schumacher doing everything possible to buy the funny car championship, right up to his attempt to buy Force's entire crew out from under him during the final run to the championship.

Some people who have achieved little in life have contempt for those who have achieved much.

 Mega Team slogan - - DIVE, DIVE, DIVE. At least, if it's going to happen, make it not look so obvious. I know track conditions change from round to round, but if a car is flying in earlier rounds, instant smoke - come on!!!

Re: Force gets beat--YAHOO
After all John Force has done promoting NHRA racing for all I don't think people should condemn him too much. He started with nothing, worked his butt off promoting himself and NHRA and has created an organization that employs many with lot's of hard work at times straining his personal life.

Re: Force gets beat--YAHOO
In the broadcast on ESPN Mike Dunn pretty much said Capps and TJ took dives. What a hollow victory and I lost what little bit of respect I had for the Schumacher bunch. Wonder if all the Chinese and Mexican workers in Schumacher's plants will get the day off to celebrate? Yea, right.
Just makes Erica's and Jason's battle that much better, too bad Pro Stock is on the ropes.

Re: Force gets beat--YAHOO
And, when they "go up in smoke", the crew chief took a dive. The driver can't do much about it. They had to be sick about looking like that.
