John Force is off to a hot start in 2010. While his season opening win in Pomona and follow-up final round appearance in Phoenix have fans of the 14-time Funny Car champion giddy with excitement. It is collectors of John Force memorabilia that are really getting their engines revved up. John Force, as well as his daughters Ashley Force Hood, Brittany Force and Courtney Force are topping the charts of Beckett Racing’s Hot List in the Spring 2010 issue.

The two cards on the Hot List in positions No. 1 John Force card and No. 6 Force Family card are from the 2009 Press Pass Legends card set. Beckett Racing editor Tim Trout thinks these two cards are some of the most compelling of the set. The cards are valued at between $100-$175 and $300-$600 respectively

The American Drag Racing League (ADRL) announced today that titanium wheel studs are prohibited in all professional classes, effective immediately, and the rule will be checked for compliance beginning Mar. 19-20, at the season-opening Universal Technical Institute Dragpalooza VI presented by Safety-Kleen.

“The ADRL has been monitoring this issue for the past year and last week during our monthly Rules Committee meeting, committee members voted unanimously to ban the use of titanium wheel studs in all professional categories,” Tom Grooms of the ADRL Technical Services division said. “So, all ADRL competitors are advised to make this immediate change.”

Additionally, ADRL Technical Services reiterated that all Pro Extreme and Pro Nitrous entries are required to have full-floating rear-end housings this season, as per the 2010 ADRL rules. However, recognizing that certain teams may still need time to comply, Grooms said a one-event extension to rule implementation has been granted.

Drag racing manufacturers have long supported the Mountain Motor cause, and many are excited for the formation of a strictly mountain motor entity. Such is the case as two more companies join the MMPSA contingency program.

Braswell Carburetors has been an innovative leader in Mountain Motor performance, so it is only fitting that they now come on board as a contingency sponsor with the MMPSA. Dave Braswell is constantly hard at work to improve quality and performance of his carburetors and Doug Schriefer is often seen in the Pro Stock pits, lending a hand and advice to customers.

The MMPSA is excited to welcome Braswell Carburetors to the program, as well as prominent engine builder, Sonny’s Racing Engines.

The more the Project White Wagon becomes a topic of conversation the more skeletons fall out of the closet. It appears to us that there was a lot more to this lady than met the eye.

There are rumors the car pushed the rule book’s gray areas to the limits, including speculation the car had the front and rear axles moved forward like an FX car, a claim that Fulton chuckles over.

Attitude’s CompetitionPlus.com, through the assistance of a key group of Pro Modified historians and enthusiasts, has compiled a list of the Top 20 all-time drivers based on their contribution to the class, historic achievements, statistics and fan appeal.

Starting on Friday, January 8, 2010, the electronic magazine began revealing those names on the list, and will announce two drivers per week, until the No. 1 driver is unveiled on Saturday, Mar. 20, during the ADRL Dragpalooza in Houston, Texas.

Attitude’s CompetitionPlus.com narrowed the list from hundreds of drivers down to 20. Today, we reveal No. 6 on the list.

Tommy Johnson Sr. remembered the day he sat in his truck, paralyzed with the news delivered just an hour earlier. Never in a million years would Johnson, then a competitive player in the mail order parts business, have ever believed his cancerous death sentence would one day lead to his greatest triumph and serve as the inspiration to author a book written about the experience.

Johnson’s book, titled simply CANCER: The True Story of How I Survived Absolute Terminal Cancer, recently hit the marketplace and while the self-published book doesn’t share the same glossy look as those on Amazon.com, he believes the message inside is more than enough to make the average person do a double-take at their everyday life. A strong message of survival is the key selling point.

“If I can save just one life, then the last ten years in making this book a reality has been worth it,” said Johnson, father of current nitro racer Tommy Johnson Jr. “I want everyone who buys the book to pass it on to someone else.”
