probably alone da best episode of driving force, not is it he's teaching his daughters a valuable life lesson but he's teaching all of us 2 appreciate how most of us have a roof over our heads, clothes on our back and food on da table. Earnhardt was da same way having quit high school 2 race and he taught his kids da exact same lessons.

John Force - "A juicy what?" Hahahahaha!

Damn, not a fan of reality tv shows but I stumbled on this show after watching the gator nats. Am glad I did as I always liked JF but have new found respect for John and his family after this!

John Force truly is great man! Very inspirational on how he came from humble beginnings! He fought long and hard for his dreams to become a reality! Now that's a story worth telling 👍

i used to play softball with Courtney force and went to high school with her. never knew she dragged raced until after graduating high school.

it was more of emotional tears, John was trying 2 get his daughters 2 understand why he busts his ass for everything he's got, he had a motivation 2 get out of poverty. At least he always said he's proud of his origins, dis is what makes him a true American icon.

I met Mr. Force - what a nice man and busy too.

The Force family seem to be good people. The girls always take extra time to talk to my 10 year-old daughter when we visit them in the pits at races. In fact, almost all of the drag race people I meet (even down to the weekend warrior racer level) have a great sense of family. Although they are always super busy getting ready for the next round of eliminations they all take time out to talk to you.

I came across these video Vlogs.. I don't know how I did but I did .. 😊and I'm just blown away how incredible John's stories are ..not only are they so surreal but there's so much similarity to his childhood life.. his father the way they grew up being poor unable to eat.. or to enjoy a bologna sandwiches ... so much alike my life for the longest time I thought it's super incredible to be able to watch somebody that has or should I say worked for the recognition and fame to come from a background like mine.. I always have a liked John Force but I never really had the opportunity to learn about his backgrounds and his family lifestyle... if I could make a wish come true It would be to meet John Force maybe even just to say hi.. shake his hand and laugh with him there is honestly so much to learn from people such as himself... in my life being poor and going hungry definitely builds a unique character within a human being.... As a fan... as a person.. my gratitude and support goes out to him and his family😊

Your parents would be very proud of the way you turned out.It's a reflection of the way they brought you up,your not STRUGGLING THEY WAY THEY DID.?They will BE VERY GLAD OF THAT.Greetings from the UK.

John is a good man and father...and I love you Ashley..

Simply the best reality show episode that I've ever seen!!! I love John and the whole series!

Poverty is a great motivator.

Nice tribute to Your Mom and Dad. We all have to tell our kids where we came from !

Major respect for making the 17 year old kid pitch on the truck lmao, thats fantastic parenting right there.

Being the luckiest man alive sir is a GOD send ! “ Amen “

Force reminds me so much of my dad. I'm now raising a little girl around racing and I hope to have the success with my family he has had with his.

Loved this show!

John: "That's how I buy my underwear." Ashley: "Well, do you buy them at a swap meat? Because that'll explain your itching." Lol!!!!!

He's raised the 3 fastest woman in world,he is truly an amazing man in racing.

His daughters are fyne as hell! !!

Ol Brute should've bought that guy a new trailer. Then had that one towed to his shop and put it in the museum as "The House That Built Him".

keep up Force family...... Bless them...

I have always loved watching John Force race!!!!

Damn John you teared me up good right there. God bless ya!

Love yah FORCE your a great brother and a gentleman and you have a beautiful family. See you at the drags in Pomona good luck....TEAM FORCE☝️

Hard works always pays off, gives us self respect and strength.

I love this family! John Forces you are a great person and The Goat of Drag racing..Peace and Love🌀🤘

I didn't know . Never ever thought where you came from . Respect for all of you .

I lived in poverty all my life my folks worked so hard just to support us two kids he lost jobs , we lived off of yard sales and my parents social security, we loved them unconditionally.

I loved this show. I don't know how much of it was real, probably not much, but it was funny!

Great Show and series.

theres a good chance that john would'nt be where he's at now if not for louie (diesel louie) and uncle gene (Gene Beaver) they were the driving force that kept john going when everybody was laughing at his failures, john earned every thing he's got and he did it by staying true to his family, and diesel deserved that truck like no other!

Drag racing grew from humble beginnings. You have to have good Sponsors. You have to to give value to those sponsors. A great story from Humble beginnings. It really is up to the parents to instill good values into children.. Other wise public schools tv Rap music movies ect will brain wash them into being little communists.. Most of these episodes make the daughters look pretty decent, but this episode made them look very spoiled in the beginning but showed them come around to be more appreciative.. Very heart warming.

Man, not even through this one yet and Louie and John are about to make me cry! So beautiful that relationship.

My favorite episode I grew up on the outher side of the riverbed in the city of bell we were all poor whites Mexicans Cubans and others but we never felt poor and all got along bought my first surfboard in bell gardens in 1967 ( Dale dobson ) friend of mine and many born in Maywood raised for a time in Cudahy (Chris Hawk) inducted I to the al of fame of surfing in Huntington bch I'm proud to have been poor builds character John force is one of the finest human beings on earth and I watched as a kid in hi old blue Chevy racing around town

Great episode.

indeed they did, but Courtney was crying because of how she felt bad about she was treating Laurie like a maid. Indeed John taught his daughters a valuable life lesson and it should be a wakeup call for everyone thinking about dropping out of high school.

I also wanna wait till I work now. I'm almost in a hole. I don't like washing dishes, hot and labor work of all kinds. If you ever come to Arkansas, go to Spring Hill road in North Sutherland to the Cracker Barrel. I have got with that puppy. I'll put in a walk in refrigerator for you too. And I someday took them to work in the painting and put stuff in so I have put no rocking chairs out so I had a real blast doing that is not like labor work and I've done a lot of work and 2 places. I've been a lot of my own tables and i've got nothing to prove it

@ firebird raceway religiously # winter nationals . Remeber the time when they had super chevy combined whow once in a life time situation ! Good times love you people . Thank you for fullfilling my hard working soul whith some high octain entertainment # nitromethane

I'm a huge Big Fan of John Force

I noticed the difference in her eyes from the times she lost to the difference in them after seeing where dad came from. The intensity and fire to win was there.

Great video.

Lessons learned watching this episode

9:22 Ashley is just chillin there

He's a stand out human being !

What’s not to love quite the man John force

THE MA HAS A ONE OF A KIND PERSONALITY

trailerhouse! hahaha.thats what we call them in Mississippi now and I grew up in one.LONG LIVE THE SINGLEWIDE TRAILERHOUSE.

Burger flippers , If it wasn't for their father they would be burger flippers lol

watching this in 2021, that truck would probably be 100k right now. Thanks Brandon...

Two words I loved about this video bologna sandwiches that was my favorite as a kid was lettuce and mayonnaise and next the big one called J O B what's that spell job work for a living. New Concept for young people parents make things too easy for them.

All Heart.

Thank you john force for being a hard working bad ass dad...I love you attitude...funny ass hell

i love johhn force

They realized it once he brought them there. Esepcially Court, i felt sorry for her and dad when they were crying. Hate seeing them cry:(

2024 BABY! 🎉

And my second question is this as you talks about his situation take away the credit cards if I had that chance I'd be kicking ass I'll be making sure my car is running is best is it good

My dad showed me this to teach me a lesson the same way

My favorite celebrity ".........who else ?

every father sets a path for his or her path don't hate participate

Good thing Brittany did not become a teacher because she is a badass Top Fuel driver that kicks butt

17:06 now Courtney is shaping up next stop for her Advanced Autoparts Funny car. Courtney got her first paycheck she needs to keep going (and she does) if she wants a seat in that funny car of hers (which she does in a few years).

You don’t want Louie giving you a bear hug, he almost crushed the life outta me at an AHRA race in San Antonio in 1982 after John won a round of racing. That dude could bench press a Buick when he was younger!

Wonder what the amount was?

Extreme Make Over Team Force Style

That truck is at least 70,000 today..

People to remember where they came from.

30 years of busting ass in drag racing = 3:46 puts a fraction of it in perspective.

I agree with you 100% kids are spoiled America’s falling apart yeah my dad made me cut the grass too and you know what now I believe that was the best thing you could’ve ever done

they should have gotten what John Force puts into teaching them instead of thinking about buying stuff

Jhon I dont see how you walked away from that trailer. You should go back an buy it back. Put it in the garrage an. Hang out somethin . GOD BLESS . long live burnt rubber

Too G D fUNNY !

Such snobs they were , God really, hear your dad he works , your turn give back, he raised you .

You can't find Oakley, give me a Sunglass Hut gift. Cand I'll go get it back up here in the mall. You're saying it means a sign

after this episode Team Force learned to respect John because if it was not for him, Louie, Roy Mayhews, or Ted Schumacher there would be no Team Force, there would be no Mayhew Racing, and there would be no Schumacher Motorsports. 30 years ago they had nothing it took hard work to get here and John is not slowing down. If you want to know the story of Team Force ask John he will take you to the Slums of Bell Gardens that is where it all began 150 wins ago.

One big fat dream I always had john was married one year dodge

You did Fantastic John, Your daughter follows you to 335 MPH in almost 3.5 sec. Your the Best !@ Your kids are

John Force learned early on, if he doesn’t win he doesn’t eat. His girls learned early on, if they don’t win, well we’re still alive. Why try?

yeah but Laurie was rite for what she said, she can see what John is trying 2 get his daughters 2 understand what hard work is, it's what makes some Americans special like Hank Aaron. He grew up completely poor, his family couldn't afford baseball equipment, he had 2 really work his way up, but he made it through in spite of facing harsh racism.

Why did the show end?? Do you think they will put it back on air. John and his family are my rolemodels>>>>

NOTHINK LIKE THE SMILE YOUR CHID HAS ON THERE FASE AFTER A GOOD PASSMINE COME BACK TALKIN LETS TUBE IT OUT

Been raising my son hes 15 now a sight to be seen homeschooled raised wright wlling to fight . You goughta go back an get that trailer #@ your old home

His dad looks like Adam sandler

Come on John you said you wanted to do this for your brother....it's wrong for him to pressure them like this

There will never be a recruiter like that again, recruiting his daughters for racers in a dragster that . Forget that you know what I mean.

Last time I saw you 15 years ago ashley sighned an old miners hat for me . Last year .of firebird .what a tradgedy who would put handicap seatin at end of track ! Stupid . All handicap up front . Its back .firebird is back ! Just found out firebird is back same name bigger an better .

THIS IS AN ALL AMERCAN FAMILY

FoxFire where all the Cougars Hang...........

I WOULD LOVE to be son. Or son n law

I feel ill. I cant believe that his kids are that self centered and oblivious to what they have. I realize its not just his kids. My nieces are exactly the same. I feel bad for our future. If it came down to it, when I was a kid, I would have been happy to help buy my Uncle a BD present. I think the Juicy handbag about put me over the top. Really?

i really like what JOHN said too HIS GIRLS ? ABOUT LIVING IN THE REAL WORLD ? WHEN YOU HAVE WORKED ALL YOUR LIFE it"S NOT THE SAME WHEN IT"S GIVEN TO YAR

I also wanna let you know add a pair of Valley gym sunglasses and it gets disappeared. I don't know whether it matters or who's the adult they like, but I didn't buy a pair of open sunglasses. Turbans oops for mom's inheritance that I got when she died in 2011 I had my glasses to help this patch here and I lost them. I've forgotten him in the hotel in Louisiana, but I would like to have another pair if you could see your belly to give me a gift card from Oakley sunglasses. So I get another pair of paints $700 per dollars but i'd like to have 2 pairs of polarized sunglasses and those are a 150 apiece. Maybe you can take your a** out to help my pants out. I would love to have some help. I'm in poverty and I hate it mom was my my money trace now that she's gone the money's gone too. That's why I can't come to the drag race that I'm the money to come to it. Anymore my paint for all my dragons that went to memphis in chicago

i betcha a lot of those other drivers are so jealous of johns daughters, because his daughters got a free, one way ticket into the winners circle i betcha they don't get no respect from the other drivers on the tracks i hate to say this, but i think that John,s business • John force racing is gonna go to hell real quick when he dies, if his daughters are in full control of it

You definitely have a spoiled and daughters and do you really have to cuss that much

Great episode 😅

There will never be a recruiter like that again, recruiting his daughters for racers in a dragster that . Forget that you know what I mean.
