This is John Force's 27th E-Town NHRA race, his first coming in '79. He has also made many runs here in the famous Englishtown
Funny Car "Sunday, Sunday, Sunday" match races. One of his frequent opponents was Al Hofmann, and Hofmann's car is on display in the
manufacturer's midway this weekend. TJ is the defending event champ. TJ struck the tires first, Force a second or so later, but he
was able to put his match race experience to good use, pedaling effectively to take the win while Johnson was unable to get the
tires hooked back up. |
