So was anybody else just watching the drag racing on espn? John Force going for his 1,000th round win in his 500th race. i Ashley Force, looking for her first win and to become the first woman to win in NHRA Funny Cars. Ashley FTW in the sports 600th race. Some crazy races going on, it was pretty exciting. That was the first time I've ever watched drag racing all the way through too.

"Ashley Force etched her name into the annals of drag racing history when she defeated her father, John, in the final round at the 28th annual Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Southern Nationals to become the first woman to win an NHRA Funny Car title."

whos the better driver...danica or ashley?

congrats to ashley!

I would give the nod to danica. Funny cars are brutal, but it only lasts a few seconds and is more about technique. Indy cars is more skill and endurance, plus it has turns and stuff (<sometimes) :read:
