BRITTANY FORCE GOES TO No. 1 FOR SECOND TIME IN 2014
BRISTOL, TN – Brittany Force raced to the No. 1 qualifying position for the second time in her career today at the 14th annual Ford 
Thunder Valley NHRA Nationals. Brittany’s category quickest elapsed time of 3.828 seconds at 317.94 mph put her in front of veterans J.R. Todd, Tony Schumacher and Antron Brown to round out the top four in Top Fuel.
With Brittany’s No. 1 effort Doug Watson of Madisonville, Tennessee, won a front loading washer and dryer as part of the BrandSource “Win with Force” promotion. This is the fifth different race a John Force Racing driver has been No. 1 qualifier and three weeks ago it was Brittany and sister Courtney Force as dual No. 1s in Top Fuel and Funny Car.
“I am so pumped for this Castrol EDGE team. To get another No. 1 qualifier is awesome. Everyone on this team is working so hard and you are seeing the results. I know our first win is right around the corner. We made consistent runs all weekend here in Bristol and I love this race track. It is one of my favorite places to race so I am looking forward to race day tomorrow,” said Brittany Force, the 2013 NHRA Rookie of the Year.
