COURTNEY FORCE Shares Proud Message After Father JOHN FORCE’s Retirement

November 14, 2025

• COURTNEY FORCE, the 37-year-old former NHRA driver, posted a touching tribute to her father John after his retirement announcement, writing she’s “so proud” of everything he’s accomplished and excited for what’s next for the JFR Racing operation – showing the class and grace that runs in this racing family.
• While COURTNEY stepped back from driving, sister BRITTANY FORCE continues carrying the family torch as one of JFR’s top drivers, backed by the HendrickCars.com partnership that Rick Hendrick renewed for 2025 – proving the Force women know how to keep the family business thriving even through major transitions.
• John’s retirement after his traumatic brain injury puts BRITTANY in an even more crucial position for the team’s future, with her father specifically mentioning hope that “our teams can bring home a few ‘Wally’ winner’s trophies” – the pressure’s on, but if anyone can deliver, it’s a Force daughter who’s already proven herself at the top level.
