Let me preface this with one important thing. I am not anti-John Force. He is one of the most colorful people in our sport & our sport is certainly the better for having him involved in it. He has set the benchmark for what it takes to be a champion in the NHRA F/C division, or any division for that matter.
Some have said that it shows how dysfunctoinal the family is. Considering what they've dealt with for many years they seem very funtional to me, that is except for John. By basically raising the children on her own I think she has done a very good job. I too was surprised to learn that John lives seperately from the rest of the family but I can certainly see why.
I posted on here a few years ago about seeing another side of John, at a race in Columbus, as he dealt with a T-shirt vendor & at the time I thought that I had never seen a bigger bully, anywhere. I've seen other things since that time & this show confirmed my thoughts along those lines. That may be a good way to run a race team & get the results that John has gotten but to my way of thinking it's one hell of a rotten way to deal with your own family.
One other thing before I go, Where in the hell does he get his clothes???? It has got to be in the clown's tent at the circus. At first I honestly thought it was a joke but soon realized it was for real. No wonder he thinks that some of those ugly paint schemes on some of his cars look good. There is definitely not an artistic bone in his body. Of course that's just my opinion & I'm sure many on here will disagree. That's great & that's what makes this old world go 'round.
I did enjoy the show & will continue to watch. I'll also commend him for allowing the rest of the world see inside his private life. That takes a very brave man................."HIP"
