I thought Force ran a 500 cube Hemi Ford engine now he'll just fab up a Chevy Hemi to his needs. I just don't see why Chevy or any other brand would put up money as funny cars don't look even close to the car there supposed to . But I guess they are to sponsor the dragster also


it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

as mentioned...every top fuel car, dragster or funny car runs a Hemi. been that way for years... I would love to see them (and pro-stock) go back to a more "stock appearing" body.

Maybe someone at GM made a mistake thinking the finals draw 4 million viewers, instead of the actual under 400k viewers. They are better off poring more advertising money into shows like street outlaws which draw about 1.5 million viewers. Oh well they have the marketing degrees not me.

You can rest assured the GM techs have introduced Force to Sonny Leonard and he has brought out Sonny's complete stock of 1,000+cu in ChevyHemi's .Force and Courtney have already had matching BowTies tattooed on their Butt Cheek's!

Well I guess it will make it that much easier to root for the DSR Mopars since Johnny went to the dark side

Just read on Competition Plus that Gray from the NHRA admitted the Camaro Funny Car body is one of the Force Mustang bodies with a couple of small changes.

Yeah, whats it matter anyway........they are ALL spec bodies basically with different decals. The Charger body looks no more like a Charger than the Chevrostang looks like either of those. They all look like shovel nose shoe boxes with a doghouse on top
