EPPING WIN BY COURTNEY FORCE MEANS FAN WINS 55” FLATSCREEN TV
EPPING, NH – Today, Courtney Force and her Traxxas Ford Mustang team brought another win, a record 220 Funny Car event wins, 
to the John Force Racing stable. This is John Force Racing’s third win of the season. Force won over her father and No. 1 qualifier, John Force, in the final round of eliminations.
In addition to Force’s Wally and Winner’s Circle celebrations, the team was able to give away a 55” flatscreen TV to a lucky fan at the inaugural Auto-Plus New England Nationals, compliments of BrandSource and the “Win with Force” promotion.
“I woke up today and I just had a good feeling. I was hoping that we could be the first Funny Car to take home a win here at New England Dragway. They built a really great track here. We’re excited to be racing here. We went to the top spot in qualifying and got bumped by my dad. I thought, ‘Man, he’s moving around me in points,’ and it was just time for a little revenge,” said Force.
The 25-year-old was able to celebrate her birthday weekend by posting a 4.301 ET to her father’s 4.367 ET.
“My team needs this win. This Traxxas Ford Mustang team with all my guys and Ron Douglas (crew chief), they’ve really been working hard on this car. They give me a great race car every weekend. We’re usually picking up the most bonus points of all the cars and trying to work our way up to the top of the ladder. I definitely think we’re making some big moves now.”
“I love it out here. We’re excited and it’s great to take home the win from New England Dragway. No one can take that away from us,” said Force.
