Force A 1.70 light then up in smoke!

Congrats to Ashley but the old man made sure Ashley would back in to her first win didn't he? (and not a word of any of it on espn)

 

[Cymon Sez]

Mike Dunn sure was quiet after that...............thanks Dad!

hey force haters- shut up and go to bed! you heard bernie on the radio right! give the girl her do! congrats to ashley, did you haters even bother to see force after the race how pissed he was? no way that was intentional!

 

[amanda Speed]

Oh please. I swear you guys will make anything seem bad. Ridiculous!!!

 

[Sparky]

He didn't look very happy about it did he. She could have beat him straight up with I think an 83. Looked a little funny to me and I am a big JFR fan. 1000 round wins in 500 races would have been something to talk about!

 

[topdigger]

Way to go Ashley! I don't for a minuet think that was given to her!

 

[Rich]

She's the points leader and this is her third finals in a row. I don't think it was given to her either. A big congrats to Ashley on her first win.

 

[Jenn]

She's the points leader and this is her third finals in a row. I don't think it was given to her either. A big congrats to Ashley on her first win.

Maybe we'll see her on Letterman! Congrats to Ashley. Hopefully this churns out POSITIVE media attention.

I don't think he was happy with his (or his car's) performance in the final. He would have liked to get that 1000th round win at the 500th race.

 

[Percboy]

Scripted...
but who here can say honestly they wouldn`t consider doing the same (at least the first time) to get the kid and the sport some PR.

 

[camaro]

it did look a little suspicious, when was the last time john had that bad of light ??

 

[The Counterfeiter]

Do either of you know John or anyone at JFR? Probably not. I watched Ashley make a very shaky start in Super Comp several years ago at Firebird with a very nervous Dad watching. Your thoughts that this was a dive are total BS.
You might want to take notice that Ashley has extended her #1 position in FC after two previous final round performances without any evidence of JFR diving.
I try to keep my replies here positive, but you are idiots -

I think Johnny looked really pissed and I thought it looked like he was lettin' Coil have it when he pulled up at the end. Johnny ain't given nothin' away and he sure as hell didn't give away that final. The reason I think he is so mad is because he knows how folks will talk about him giving it away. He wanted to race her for it and it just didn't work out that way. Live with it, Ashley got her first win. If you like her be happy, if you don't like her don't be happy. Just be glad you got to see Drag Racing history be made.

Leave it to some fuddy duddies to think that was staged.

 

[Dave]

BTW, Johnny didn't have a 1.70 light, it was .170.

When Ashley beat John last year in Atlanta during their first round race, John was THRILLED. He got out of his car, went over there, and kissed her. Tonight he was dejected and pissed. He wanted the 1000th round win at his 500th race, I would assume. He was happy for his kid getting a W, but in no way, shape, or form would John Force (in my opinion) EVER throw a race.

If you think he did, you need to ring your call button, and Tommy will come over and smack you on the head with a tackhammer because you are a retard.

Congrats to Ashley, Guido, and all of Team Force! You guys kicked everyone's butt this weekend, and deserved to get the W!

 

[Meeks]

Uh yeah Im thinking John was going out there for the win...Did any of you see the interview after the race?? Im half thinking it wasnt very nice of him to act the way he did during the interview...he seemed like he wasnt even happy for her. I'd say any of you to think that was staged are CRAZY!

 

[Toejam]

Ashley was a win waiting to happen, but to see her get her first win that way was pretty lame IMO! Flame away...

 

[paoldtimer]

Congrats Ashley! Some people wouldn't be happy at a party with free beer and ice cream!!
She earned it the old-fashioned way and I can't believe we are even having this discussion...
