Force is 42 - 24 against Capps in prior events. This is John Force's 35th Winternationals event and it's only the 2nd time that he has qualified 11th. The other time was 1979 his first year at this race.

We get a stellar race this time with a pair of Funny Cars side by side from start to finish. Capps starts with a small 0.002 RT advantage and then starts a slow but steady pull down the track. Force is slowly catching him, but runs out of race track first. Very Nice!
