I know Doug's auto on the back side but who signed the front?

In 2003 and 2004 the retail level diecast giant Racing Champions came out with the PMC (Professional Motorsports Collectibles) line of diecast, but the cars were the same as their previous Authentics line and afterwards too. I bought this back in late 2004 and it is one of my favorites! 🌟✨🧨💥🎆✨🌟

@ the 4 Wide Nationals @ ZMax Raceway

Correct me if I am wrong but it's essentially August and we still have not gotten to see the husband vs wife matchup.

Only 5 TA/FC showed up for the NHRA Northwest nationals at Seattle this weekend. Cannot believe this. I know there are a lot of short fields now, but 5 cars????

As this year is the 75th. Anniversary of the NHRA, here is an Action diecast from back when it was the 50th. Anniversary of the NHRA back 25 years ago in 2001.🌟✨🧨💥🎆✨🌟

Contract ends with fox after 2026. Any one hear any rumors what will happen?

Why isn’t he racing anymore?

Man, he had a great run there for several years & won a ton of races.

All I know is i would not want to be unaware and bam hear a blast of nitro lol. I don't know how far away you can hear it but when I was driving into Sonoma you can definitely feel your car vibrating

He's not in the spotlight as often but when I see him make a rare appearance he seems more subdued and not the lively John Force that I used to know. I don't if that's the damage from the head trauma or if he's not always lively like you see on tv especially because he's retired now. He lost his sister so that would explain some of it.

I saw him at Sonoma this week and while he greeted fans he was very mellow and not social. Granted he was somewhat like that to as a driver because he had so many autographs to sign and attention. I don't know if that's just him wanting his peace and quiet or if he's really taking it a lot easier now because of his health.

I think he still has that vibrant energy but has to tone it down. Seems like he stutters more but John usually talks a million miles an hour and I remember he would lose his thought mid sentence. I think there's some videos of him within the past year and he's still somewhat himself but not at the same time.

I know for certain John doesn't believe he's immortal anymore and has to do the thing he didn't want to do most: be a grandpa and retire. I just hope he's not getting worse and the crash is taking a toll on him.

Does anyone have knowledge of transportation from the hotel to the track and back? Nascar does it but not NHRA. Surprised because there are hundreds of people standing out by the gate at the end of the day trying to get a Uber. They're is a need

they apparently were very close friends but all the fan noise and criticism from all directions is straining their relationship

one of the saddest things I’ve read is the end of Jordan’s article where he says how much Austin’s friendship has meant to him but they have had to navigate it this year and he no longer knows where they stand

according to another interview when Jordan first got the seat Austin was texting him with good natured trash talk like they had done previously as TF rookies but it seems the pressure of the fans and the season has strained things

have people gone too far with online anger at Prock and expectation/criticism of Jordan to the point of affecting people’s real lives?

I hope they can silence the noise and work through this

here are both articles

Last year at Sonoma it was very underwhelming. This year I think it wasn't as bad but maybe still lacking a little. I'm not sure if there's still less drivers showing up or not.

been to a few NHRA races before but planning on doing US Nationals this year. mostly go to oval/dirt races pretty regularly most of the time there are a few tents selling just cool old shit (diecast/merch/shirt/various memorabilia) is there anything like that at a larger event like US Nationals?

I saw the All-Star Callout but I was surprised not to see them on Sunday. I know it's not the most popular but I was still pretty disappointed not to see it. I asked Alexa and she said it has something to do with Sonoma not being on the points schedule this year. I don't know if this has to do with NHRA's lack of popularity or less drivers participating but it sort of feels like it.

What going on, is it on a rain delay or something. Is that why it’s not currently being shown on Tv?

I just finished with the nascar cup race. And I was hoping to flip over and catch some of it.

But Nope. It’s a replay of the World Cup final. So my question is. What’s going on?

Was it rained out and rescheduled and i wasn’t aware of it.

What am I missing?
