It's getting quite sickening and IMO he makes the event coverage more like a Beverly Hillbillies re-run every time he opens his mouth on tv. It's like NHRA is making him the voice of the sport, and it's starting to look more and more like a 3-ring circus whenever the mike is in John Force's hands.....sorry for the rant, but couldn't hold back any longer......signed, "Force-fed long enough".......

WJ, bottom line is Force puts butts in the seats and sponsors in the NHRA / ESPN programming arena. Like him or don't he is good for drag racing. As a fan, he has ALWAYS treated me like gold.
