Southern California Drag Racing Legend Begins Road to Recovery at Home
“Peace out Phoenix! After 30 days, my dad is finally heading home where we will continue outpatient therapy,” Brittany Force wrote on Instagram. “These next steps to recovery will definitely be a family effort!”
The crash that led to Force’s injuries occurred on June 23 during the first round of Funny Car eliminations at the Virginia Nationals, held at Virginia Motorsports Park. Force’s engine exploded at the finish line, causing his car to cross the strip’s centerline and collide with the driver’s side concrete guard wall. The vehicle then ricocheted back across the track, hitting the opposite wall. Despite the fiery crash, Force was alert and communicating with safety workers immediately afterward. He was evaluated by the NHRA medical team before being airlifted from the track for further treatment.
In addition to the traumatic brain injury, Force sustained a fractured sternum and an injury to his right wrist. The racing community has rallied around him, showing immense support and admiration for his resilience and determination to recover.
Force, who attended Cerritos College, has had an illustrious career in drag racing, becoming one of the most recognizable and successful figures in the sport. His recent ordeal has highlighted the dangers inherent in motorsports, while also showcasing the strength and unity of the racing community.
As Force embarks on the next phase of his recovery at home, fans and fellow racers alike are sending their best wishes and hoping for a swift and complete recovery. His journey from the crash to outpatient care is a testament to his tenacity and the unwavering support of his family and the broader racing community.
