Keeping the GOAT and family, crew in my thoughts and prayers 🙏

Wow, that was a fire ball. Love John Force racing. He is so energetic and fun to listen to. Get well soon, I have my fingers crossed for you and your family.
-
John needs to get well, get out of the hospital and go open the John Force drag racing museum. Give tours and narration. The fans would really enjoy that.
-
Yes amen 🙏🏻 praying 🙏🏻 for John force and his family ❤
-
🙏🙏🙏🙏 I an 76 years old and remember John from the very early days. I cannot Amagine that hit, the body does not recover easy. I worried about brain injury. Praying and wishing him the best.
-
Prayers for John.

John Force would be considered a VIP at any hospital because of his notoriety. His notoriety alone would insure his stay in ICU. The fact that John is still in ICU doesn't mean infer anything. Blood vessels could have sheared. Such things take time to reveal themselves.

Why Don’t NHRA Use Soft Walls , Like NASCAR 🤔
-
I believe John has a either a very severe concussion or he has swelling of the brain. A concussion is bad, but if the brain swells that could mean brain damage. With all the crashes and head injuries he has had if he goes back to racing and does not hang up his helmet I feel he is asking for something even worst. We all love John and watching him race, but enough is enough. We have John now and I am afraid we may loose him if he does not quit now.

When John Force hit the wall on the left side it was a major impact. That had to hurt. After he was on the gurnee he sat up to address Brittany and he looked in pain.
-
God bless John Force and his family. Praying for his speedy recovery ❤🩹
-
If Johns condition is unknown by now it is not good. The doctors will probably not medically clear him for some time, and probably recommend he not race anymore like they did with Swervin Ernie Irvin and Neil Bonnet.
-
Please get the facts re: the wreck. He hit the wall twice, and both were with tremendous force!!
-
We've (Cal State Fullerton)won a few of those college W.S. Congratulations! John Force lives not too far from us in Yorba Linda Ca. Great guy! Heal fast John.
-
Courtney who is married to Graham is younger than Brittany Ashley is married to his crew chief. You must not know much about Force.
-
I love John, I would hang-up my helmet as John doesn't need to prove anything to anyone. I hope he is around another 20 years to enjoy his family and the racing enterprise he has built. A legend for sure! Heal well & quickly John.
-
The memorial piece was spot on. Love them all.❤❤😊
-
I saw this! I was there. A huge fireball! A very scary event!
-
GOD SPEED JOHN FORCE.

The man sat up on the stretcher to talk to Brittany after getting taken out of the car, was not like he was unconscious or something, guess doctors are just being cautious
