That's for sure, Bobby. I think some folks have missed the point, so let me try to explain.
At the 1998 national event at Englishtown, New Jersey, John Force posted the fastest speed in the history of the fuel classes, surpassing both the fastest Funny Car and Top Fuel marks of the day.
Shortly thereafter Force decided that he should be crowned the "King of Speed," a title that Top Fuel racer Kenny Bernstein had claimed as his own for a number of years.
Bernstein was willing to recognize Force's accomplishment, however, by bestowing the title "Queen of Speed" on his friend. It was all in fun, but those in the know say that Bernstein's comments did not sit well with the perennial Funny Car champion.
We caught up with Bernstein recently and had him recount his side of the story, and then we went to England to bring you an up-close-and personal look at the real "Queen of Speed."
