I was more shocked to see Edwards win vs. Force - I think any Dad would lay down for their kid, kudo's to all three of 'em.

True...but I think with the run she had in the finals...she would have beat him anyways!

Congrats to Ms. Force.

Also good to see Mike Edwards back in Winners' Circle, Tim Wilkerson not only Qualifying but running well in elims, and I gotta admit....... I think Antron Brown is for real!

Overall, some pretty good entertainment last evening.

I agree Bruce, Ashley had a good run - but I never count old man Force out! I just know that if it was me, my daughter's first win would far outweigh my 1000th - heck, I would have shut if off at mid track if I had the lead! Ashley is a good race car driver, and so is Antron - loved seeing him pick up his second win of the year.

to both.

I agree Marlin...old man Force is a wonderful guy. He's really in touch with the special needs kids...he was one himself when growing up (he had polio)

Here's a pic of John with Holly a few months ago!



And here's Ashley on a motorcycle with a viper engine!

I guess that John was yelling at Austin Coil after the race. Why? Because he did not want to let everyone have foder saying that he laid down for Ashley!!! You have to admit, John has earned some records that may never be erased.

Bruce,

I do have to say that the picture of Ashley on the Viper bike!!!!

You better have this one framed and hanging in your office and/or den! A once in a lifetime memory and one she will carry all of hers!

Cool win for Ashley even with her Father's help. I'am wondering if she can gain the worldwide attention that Danica Patrick has with her first win?
