0:08 John is showing them the design room this is before is was built. Along the wall is the all the photos of Team Force. Near the window are mannequins with their fire suits that they wore when they got their first wins 0:36 John is pointing to where Ashley's office is today and Brittany is in here most of the time making graphics for each race. Behind them is the studio this is where Ashley makes all the videos that are on UA-cam she is a good director you should see her work.
I never saw the show when it was on T.V. I have only recently discovered it on UA-cam. I've never watched any reality T.V. show before. Now I'm addicted to this one. I can relate to John Force. We grew up in the same area and are close in age and attended Irwindale Raceway as kids to watch drag racing. I would want to see the program come back as well, but the time has past. The show was created at the right time, now the girls have gone their own way. End of story. Thank you John Force and family. I'm a big fan. Blessings for the rest of your lives.
Have watched john force racing for years. Big NHRA fan. Have watched the girls race for years. His daughters must make him crazy. He is giving them the opportunity to do something great with a great future. A dynasty , futures like this dont come along every day. The girls should grab the ring and not let go.
My favorite show when I was 10 years old that's when I fell in love with nhra as well as Nascar and F1 but I digress I'm so excited to see it return to Chicago I missed it so much love john and his team
I hope he knows how lucky he is that his daughters even talk to him today. Yeah, they got involved, but holy sh#t man, they are freakin kids at that point and it was his dream not theirs and he gets pissed at them when they have nothing to say. Why would they when they already knew what was coming? A lecture from Dad on how he's sacrificing everything for them. Nope. He did it for himself and he's lucky one of those girls didn't get burned up or crippled for life driving those cars. In the end, it was their choice, but Christ! Like I said he's lucky he still has a family.
The show did work. They ended it after Eric Medlen's death so they could focus on safety and make sure that another driver didn't die from brain injuries.
If this show was on these days, it would be VERY successful. It’s a shame that it didn’t work out, because it was actually a pretty entertaining show at times.
They're just immature kids. You're right. He gives them everything, because he wants success from his daughters, but they haven't figured their life yet. Then, Court & Britt were just thrill seekers with an adrenaline rush. They haven't decided that driving for a living was their thing.
Laurie is right, he doesn't listen to what the girls want. You can't make someone want what you want. He. Needs to lighten up and be more understanding.
this is insane how much me and john force are alike and that rhyme his daughter's came up with i had one on my car like that *( there she sits at the light 500HP chevy might, sideways sliding engine's roar, keep that damn ford away from my chevy door or something like that its in like 89-90 supper chevy on the cover i probably messed it up i'm getting old lol all the chemical exposure mess's our memory up that a d we go for days with little to no sleep i usually slept at the track before time trials and in-between rounds but i raced 4 nights sometimes 5 a week 1 was just a test and tune though i made a ton of money racing )* i think force was scouting me back then i'm a bracket/index racer *( was about to move up to pro stock )* from Memphis had to quit the sport right before force started his team
2:30 John is naming their roles and these are their roles Brittany is a driver she races with her dad and Robert. Courtney is a team owner She, Graham, Bobby, Dave Letterman, and Mike Lanigan own Rahal, Letterman, and Lanigan Racing which according to Google Earth is right next door to the Team Force Shops in Indy. The Hights are in the management with John and Ashley and Laurie are in design with the Procks serving as crew chiefs and mechanics with Danial Hood who is Ashley's husband. Team Force is a family business and it needs to stay that way.
His family is so spoiled and ungrateful...I'm not knocking being a school teacher but what about appreciating the business and the hard work that made your family millionaires. It's like they have no respect or awareness of what that took or what it means to their dad/husband...because Laurie seems guilty of that too.
I live 22 miles from a major drag strip. This past weekend I took my twins girls to a pro race and they got to see Brittany drive. I have total respect for what her dad has built, and I am just a working class stiff so take this with a grain of salt. He admits that he was never around for his family and now he wants them to listen to him and do what he wants them to do? He doesn't even know what they are interested in. It is a whole lot easier to communicate with your children when you have actually build a relationship with them from the moment they are born. I won't be able to hand a multi-million dollar business over to my daughters but I will at least know who they are as people and what makes them tick.
This guy seriously needs professional help. You don't run your family like a business headed by an ex-marine drill sergeant. He may be a champion driver but he's going to end up bitter and alone.
What would make a good show - John finds somebody who can teach him social skills by modeling his driving skills. I could help him with this. As the season progresses, he learns how to become a respected leader instead of a feared tyrant, and his family and crew respond and JFR becomes a great place to be.
He just wants them to take over his empire, so that the next generation of his lineage, can benefit from his awesome success, well after he's gone (every normal dad's wish). That's why he gets a little frustrated. He didn't grow up with a millionaire's lifestyle, like his girls did. He just want's them to know that his racing empire will take care of many generations of Force blood, if they understand how fortunate they are, and take a serious interest in what makes their lives so rich. No pun intended.
In that meeting only Courtney and Ashley had their futures planned as for Miss Drag Racing Queen Brittany Force she was on the fence she wanted to teach kindergarten and John told her No because that is not how things are. Brittany thought you can run the Supercomp cars and quit after one season she did not know about Frank's Driving School and getting into a Top Fueler which she now drives. In the NHRA there are seven classes and drivers start at the bottom and work their way up. If you are going into Top Fuel you start in Soapbox at age 5 and graduate to Jr. Dragster at age 8. You stay in there for two years and when you turn 10 you graduate to Supercomp which is where Jacob and Noah are at. Age 16 you get your drivers license and transition to Supercomp A Fuel which is where Autumn is after a year in Supercomp the drivers have a decision go pro and drive Top Fuel or stay in and drive Street for a year. If you go pro your in a Top Fuel Dragster going 350 thats where Brittany is today. Ashley and Courtney went another route they went to Street for a year and went to Funny Car where John and Robert are. In Street you have another decision Funny Car or Prostock Ashley and Cortney went to Funny Car while the Enders sisters and Shelly Anderson went to Prostock. You should watch the interviews to see what happened.
Team Force is more then a team they are a family. John Force is president and CEO of Team Force, Robert is President of the company and shop manager, His wife Adria Hight is the Finance Officer, and Ashley is Vice President and Sr. Editor. But it is more then that Over the years Team Force has merged with other teams and some of these members are now part of Team Force. Danial Hood is Courtney's crew chief and Ashley's husband, Last year Team Force merged with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing that same day Courtney married Graham and when Courtney is not racing she is helping Graham manage his team, and also last year Jimmy and Austin Prock came back and John is training them to succeed Mike Neff as crew chief and so Austin can get his licence. Right now in order for Austin to get his licence he has to serve as a mechanic. Austin Prock is Brittany's mechanic and is responsible for servicing the engine. The Medlens were use to be part of the team but when Eric was killed they defected to Shoemaker Motorsports to serve as Beckman's crew. Mike Neff also use to be with Team Force but after last season he went back to Shoemaker and is on his crew.
Been talking to him at various drag strips for years and his daughters yeah they were kids but girls not decisive about a damn thing nothing and of course mom doesn't either when your a young man at 18 you freaking decide one way or another then you navigate as you go women will rarely do this that is why a man should navigate other than raising children don't get this wrong women are smart but there are reasons why men are men and women are women we can observe from numerous points and call me sexist if you want but l grew up with five sisters and no brothers remember hunters and gathered know this women that are good hunters learned from a man
Poor when Little e then very Rich and spoiled as Teenagers.. Bottom line in the end all Three of them did Drag Race and bring in Big Money Sponsors.. Truth is they earned their dues. I can't blame them for retiring from Funny Cars and Top Fuel very dangerous.. I know the Oldest Ashley is married with kids .. and one of them married an Indy car racer Graham Rahul . For as spoiled as they were at one time I think they all turned out very nice.. Plus John has an older Daughter who is CFO what ever that stands for.. Chief Financial Officer..
ASHLEY put your seatbelt on. (F150) Am I the only 1 who loved this show? GOD BLESS THE FORCES and THEIR TEAM!
I loved this show and wished it had aired many more seasons. John is pure entertainment.
I can see how much your family loves you John. You're an incredibly lucky man to have that beautiful family.

literally loved this show. wish they continued it!
Great reality show that I miss. A lot of honesty and heart shown . And John is hilarious !

What a "Force" to be reckoned with! Haha

why did this show not work? John Force was super funny, kinda like a sane Gary busy
The show did work. They ended it after Eric Medlen's death so they could focus on safety and make sure that another driver didn't die from brain injuries.
@@markkanen3906 Sorry I triggered you. Find your safe space.
I wish they bring the show back
I just bought the first season. On eBay
If this show was on these days, it would be VERY successful. It’s a shame that it didn’t work out, because it was actually a pretty entertaining show at times.
Sometimes I think the ladies in life doesn't give John enough respect! He provides everything for them and so they take it for granted.
They're just immature kids. You're right. He gives them everything, because he wants success from his daughters, but they haven't figured their life yet. Then, Court & Britt were just thrill seekers with an adrenaline rush. They haven't decided that driving for a living was their thing.
Funny she wanted to be a teacher now Britney is a top fuel champion
IM NOT MAD ABOUT NOTHING haha as he is yelling and clearly pissed
This was the best reality show
Laurie is right, he doesn't listen to what the girls want. You can't make someone want what you want. He. Needs to lighten up and be more understanding.

Enjoy ever moment with your friends and family. As your life can be snuffed out in under 1 second! As Motor Sports is unforgiving...
John knows that better than anyone.
u have 3 beautiful daughters go easy john

@@fragelicious exactly John is trying 2 get them 2 understand why he works as hard as he does, after all he's a legend similar 2 Dale Earnhardt.
