Adding Force to the Hobby
Dynamic Father, Daughter Racing Team Get in Front of the Camera in Support of the Hobby
In addition to sharing a competitive racing spirit and a legendary last name, NHRA Funny Car racers Ashley and John Force have another common bond—their support for the collector car hobby.
The dynamic duo put their passion for the hobby into action by filming a commercial for the SEMA Action Network (SAN). The ad promotes the SAN’s proactive approach in working with lawmakers from across the country to protect the rights of automotive enthusiasts.
Complementing the collection of racing trophies, 14-time NHRA Champion John Force also has quite a few collector vehicles on display at his racing facility; two of those vehicles—a ’57 Ford Thunderbird and ’65 Ford Mustang—were used in the filming. As an up-and-coming racer in the Funny Car Series, Ashley added her insight to a younger generation of enthusiasts who are getting involved in the hobby.
“I would like to thank everyone at John Force Racing for their continued support of the SAN,” said SAN director Jason Tolleson. “As an avid fan of NHRA and the John Force team, it was a great experience to work with them.”
The ad will debut at the 2008 SEMA Show and will soon be available to car clubs and hobbyists to view on the SAN website |
