NHRA drag racer Brittany Force is taking her foot off the pedal to start a family
"In her previous event, the NHRA Nevada Nationals last week in Las Vegas, Force took home the victory after defeating Shawn Langdon in the final round. Her 19th career win gave her the most by a woman driver, a mark she held with Shirley Muldowney. Combined with her father John Force 's 16 funny car world championship titles, her win added another trophy to the family's dominating run. As she looks ahead to Pomona, she's hoping for the perfect ending to this chapter."
"Brittany Force has had an illustrious career. Throughout her 12-year-run, she became the first top fuel driver in history to go 340 mph, owns nine of the top 10 fastest times in NHRA history, won two world championships and became the first woman in 35 years (second overall) to hold the top fuel racing world title. She never imagined she would"
Brittany Force will step away from top fuel racing at the end of the season to start a family with her husband, Bobby Lyons. She recorded a 343.51 mph run at the NHRA U.S. Nationals, the fastest in NHRA history. Force recently won the NHRA Nevada Nationals, earning her 19th career victory and the most wins by a woman driver. The win adds to a family legacy that includes father John Force's 16 funny car championships. Pomona serves as her home track and she hopes for a perfect conclusion to this chapter.
