Brittany Force’s Road to NHRA Glory
When you think of drag racing royalty, the Force name immediately comes to mind. But among the high-octane family legacy, Brittany Force has forged her own record-breaking path, redefining what it means to be a champion in NHRA Top Fuel.
The Making of a Champion
Brittany, daughter of 16-time Funny Car champion John Force, initially didn’t plan to follow in her father’s footsteps. Yet once she did, it didn’t take long for her to make history.
After turning pro in 2013, Brittany rapidly climbed the ranks in NHRA Top Fuel. She earned her first Top Fuel World Championship in 2017, becoming just the second woman to ever do so in the modern era. She followed up with a second title in 2022, making her the first woman to claim multiple Top Fuel championships in over three decades.
Record-Setting Speeds
Beyond her championships, Brittany holds some of the most jaw-dropping records in drag racing:
- Top Fuel Speed Record: 338.94 mph
- Quickest Elapsed Time: 3.623 seconds
These aren’t just stats; they’re milestones in a sport dominated by split-second precision and fearless driving. Brittany’s achievements make her a standout not just among female athletes but across all motorsports disciplines.
2025: A Season to Watch
With renewed support from powerhouse sponsor HendrickCars.com, Brittany Force is set to compete in the 2025 NHRA Camping World Drag Racing Series at full throttle. She’ll be the headliner at major events like the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals at zMAX Dragway, a venue where she made history as the first woman to ever win a Four-Wide event back in 2016.
Her 2025 NHRA campaign with HendrickCars.com represents more than just a return to the track — it’s a bold continuation of a championship legacy built on speed, resilience, and elite performance.
Inspiring the Next Generation
Brittany’s fearless attitude and barrier-breaking victories have inspired a new wave of young women to explore careers in motorsports. Her presence in the pit and on the podium is proof that talent, determination, and grit know no gender.
As she returns to the track in 2025 with championship aspirations and horsepower to spare, all eyes will be on the Monster Energy/HendrickCars Top Fuel dragster and the woman commanding it.
