Long before adult, and even long before the "www", I spent every free second doing NHRA/IHRA/AHRA reporting. I was writing coverage back in the early 70's before I was even licensed to drive. I don't know how John will take this, and he's had some rough times before he got big. His daughter Ashley who just turned Pro in the Nitro Funny Car ranks, had Eric Medlen there helping her every step along the way. I think that John Force Racing will eventually turn this to one hell of a tribute on living a dream.

I got a number of calls from old friends on Monday the 19th. At that time it was very uncertain. Medlen was in critical condition, and they had to place him in a medically induced coma. They did a total of four different surgeries to try and reduce the pressure and swelling, but the damage was too great. He made it through till Friday afternoon.
