A picture is worth a thousand words and for this Motorsports fan who is also a John Force Racing fan that has been watching John Force for years, this picture of Ashley Force beating her father John Force (who was going for his 1000 career round win on Sunday) on Sunday to grab her first career NHRA Funny Car victory in the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Southern Nationals is amazing. What a great job by Ashley Force who had been to the finals two previous times already this season back at Gainesville and last time out in Houston, now finds herself as the points leader by -59 points, what a victory. Comments.

Thanks for posting your, Racedriven. I believe Ashley is not only the first woman to win in Funny Car Nitro competion, but also the first one to lead in championship points. Just like Danica’s first win, we knew this was coming.
Congratulation Ashley Force.
Awesome picture, too, Great find.
