Rick Hendrick found his passion for motorsports from Drag Racing. He shared the he would compete in races in his 1931 Chevrolet with his father. He said “I have been a fan of John and his family for a long time, and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to partner with Brittany and Chevrolet. I know they will be terrific representatives for the HendrickCars.com brand”.
Force, honored to drive the car adorned in the paint scheme honoring Ricky Hendrick, now made famous for Kyle Larson’s domination in the Cup Series. She is the first to bring Hendrick into Top Fuel, as Hendrick sponsors Pro-Stock driver Greg Anderson.
The partnership begins this weekend, and will continue for the races at Virginia Motorsports Park, again in Charlotte, and Texas Motorplex.
Brittany Force’s 2024 Season so Far:
Brittany Force is looking to turn around from her winless 2023 season. The two-time Top Fuel world champion secured four No. 1 qualifying spots, but only reached the final round once. She currently sits eighth in points with 203, tied with Antron Brown. Currently at the Four-Wide Nats, Brittany put her best pass down in Q1, and has had suboptimal passes in Q2 and Q3.

What a win in Charlotte would mean?
Rick Hendrick and John Force, 36 championships between the two owners. This is a monumental partnership and a Brittany Force win in Charlotte would mean so much. Charlotte Motor Speedway is just down the road from Hendrick Motorsports. John Force, Brittany’s father and car-owner, said “I’ve known and admired Rick for a long time. He sets the standard when it comes to excellence and success in motorsports. I’m thrilled and excited for my daughter and hope our team can bring home a ‘Wally’ winner’s trophy this weekend for HendrickCars.com and John Force Racing.”
NASCAR Fans are used to seeing the Hendrickcars.com Chevrolet in victory lane, hopefully Brittany Force and JFR can get the Hendrick Cars Dragster the first victory in 2024, in Hendrick Motorsports backyard.
