Wild rides for John Force and Alexis DeJoria at the Lucas Oil Winternationals
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2025
- The desperation to get in a good run was evident as both John Force and Alexis DeJoria tried to save problem-plagued runs and cost themselves valid e.t.s. Force crossed the centerline and DeJoria tagged the wall with the left-rear fender. Because they did take the Tree they will go on the qualifying sheets ahead of a trio of drivers who never even got to the Tree, but all of them, including Force and DeJoria, are outside the quick 16.

I was there today. it was my first ever NHRA Event. I think I'm gonna go for the NHRA finals this year too.
Welcome to nitro, enjoy the ride!
Welcome!
To bad so many of the nitro cars were struggling today
I’m a newbie also, going on Saturday-
Yall need to get baptism by nitro
Excellent driving on both drivers parts.
Nice driving on both drivers parts!!! Better luck to both of you on the next pass!!!
That was WILD! Double DQ. Glad no one was hurt.
Qualifying ….but yes both runs are thrown out
I miss my uncle, he took me to 5 races including in charlotte (two times ), Gainesville(two times) and last but not least Atlanta before it close down and I got bunch of Nhra stuff in his will including John force racing jacket
From here that looks like fun. but with the wheelbase being so small it's not easy. those drivers have serious skills and have all my respect. 💪💪🏁💯💯
Correcting both of those cars at that point, with zero sheet metal damage, speaks volumes to both drivers skill sets
I was at the track on Friday and saw the run, good driving skills for both.
Talked with Alexis (sweet as can be and down to earth) yesterday and she said her fire extinguisher failed causing the mishap. She didn't make the show for the final round but she"ll be back to fight another day. I'm getting ready for the final rounds as I type, gotta go...
Sad day on Sunday. Maybe only 300 people in the stands. NHRA has to do something to bring the fans back into the seats. Very sad seeing that. When i was growing up the stands were packed..
John Force awesome recovery
Sometimes the monster gets away
Holy Chit! Great job of driving by both!! John was soo out of shape. His experience prevaied.
The Miracle of that pass was how did John not hit a timing block.😮
Good thing they make depends lol poor John sure needed them today. Glad everyone walked away ok and no real bad damage to anyone's rides.
Just looks like they were doing the waltz together
Track conditions looked awful. Few made anything resembling a full run.
And Force crossing the center line again. Looks like a repeating theme.
That track messed with all the racers...What was done to the track over the winter?
Obviously a problem with the start line area. Both cars were in trouble when they began their runs. Speaks volumes about how skilled the drivers are to avoid a collision!
I WAS THERE WHEN THIS HAPPENED
what was on the track to make both of them so undrivable
I heard track prep was crap...most the funny cars didnt make it down track well at all...
Hold on to your ass Fred..quote from SNOWMAN. 😂
"I'm almost positive John was over the center line." Almost positive?😅
Well with no one being hurt it is just another day in the life of drag racing.
Fin John force. 😮
Yikes!!!
I'd stop watching NRHA if John got hurt.
This video shows you how terrible the NHRA is at building a Brand. No wonder race teams are struggling raising money. Here you have a great 1 min clip to show the awesomeness of Nitro Funny Cars and Drag Racing and here they show 2 seconds of in car POV of Alexis coasting in the car. A normal third graded would have shown 20 seconds before that of her taming the Beast and fighting to control her car and saving it! This is why anything the marketing dept does at NHRA is so bland and painfully of message. Just watch what Smokes production team did with his 2 part Gatornationals videos.

Speaking of "third graded" efforts...
If you are going to chide the NHRA over their marketing efforts, try to improve your wording, at least to above a "third graded" level..."so bland and painfully of message"???

So why was there very few people there last year at the Northwest nationals?
On Saturday, there was 21000 people.moore on sunday You're looking at 90000 people. For the three day event And they only had 12 funny cars and 12 dragsters.
And probably 10 pro stock motorcycles. And people still went
Double disqualification and double fines. John crossed first he hit the blocks and Alexis crossed second and smacked the wall and took out a light and the fire extinguisher. This run is a bust see you tomorrow John and Alexis.
Looks to me like John forced her to take evasive action so she wouldn't get hit by his stupid decision to stay in it. HE should have been DQ'd, NOT HER!!!
Johns always way over the centerline, wish I had a dollar for every time he ends up in the other lane.
Wow, that was sketchy
squeezing so tight you couldn't get the tip of pin in.
Force over the center line ....AGAIN......
😂😂🤡
He too old huh?
Can u do better ...doubt it
Old geezer needs to retire but he’s a huge grandiose narcissist and racing provides the validation he needs to function! It’s funny....people that know nothing about narcissism thinks he keeps racing because he’s a “die hard” champ! He’s super selfish or he would retire and do some things his wife has sacrificed all these years for him to live his dream....he’s got plenty of money! His wife and daughters won’t give him validation because they understand his disorder....that’s why two of them quit racing...to get away from him....
John lost bs he cross the line
