A ford friend of mine is the national sales rep for POR-15. He told me he was going to John Forces' shop.(when he was in the fords) I told him to ask John why he was running a Chrysler Hemi in his mustang? He wasn't too happy with me.
We visited Force's shop a couple of times. It's quite impressive. It dwarfs the other shops down there in Brownsburg - even DSR's. Talking to a crew member, he even admitted that the "Boss 500" was basically a Chrysler Hemi. They make just about every component of their cars in house on their huge CNC machines - which are manufactured just 30 miles from where I live here in WI.

You're in real trouble with those picks, G.
Why?
Because those were my original picks for Las Vegas and you can see how well I'm doing this year!
You may be OK now in FC because I changed my driver pick.
Good luck!

Congrats to memike (FABO) and Gpuller (FBBO) for sharing the Top Qualifier title for the 2015 SummitRacing.com NHRA Nationals with outstanding totals of 23. bonus points each. Memike picked the #1 qualifier in Funny Car and the #2 qualifiers in Top Fuel and Pro Stock; Gpuller picked the #1 qualifier Pro Stock and the #2 qualifiers in Top Fuel and Funny Car.
ocdart (FABO) took the runner-up spot with 21.5 bonus points.
Great picks all!
24 players again this week and 24 different driver combos made up of:
* 6 different Top Fuel drivers with two Round 1 powerhouse head-to-head matchups. One between #3 qualifier Shawn Langdon (1 pick) and #14 qualifier Antron Brown (5 picks), and the other between #6 qualifier Doug Kalitta (2 picks) and #11 qualifier Spencer Massey (2 picks). The winners of each of those matchups will meet in the second round of eliminations. No matter what happens, a bunch of players are going out early in eliminations.
* 8 different Funny Car drivers but only one Round 1 head-to-head matchups between #7 qualifier Ron Capps (3 picks) and #10 qualifier Robert Hight (2 picks). There are also three potential head-to-head matchups in Round 2 of eliminations.
* 7 different Pro Stock drivers picked this week. No Round 1 head-to-head matchups and only one possibility of a head-to-head matchup in the 2nd round of eliminations.
Good luck all!

All mine went out early too,
Glad to see JFR won again,
it's better when they're in the competition,
not just one super team winning
especially with DSR & their 2 super teams in T/F & F/C...
We need someone else winning every once in a while thou...

Congratulations to 'bvt69dart' (FABO) for winning the "Top Picker Eliminator" title for this event with a very nice point total of 103.5 points. He picked the class winner in Pro Stock; his Top Fuel pick went to the semi-finals before losing and his Funny Car pick lost in the second round of eliminations but his point total was aided by picking up event ET bonus points in Funny Car and event Speed bonus points in both Top Fuel and Funny Car.
