BRITTANY FORCE Makes NHRA History With 19th Top Fuel Win at Nevada Nationals

November 3, 2025

• BRITTANY FORCE just rewrote the history books, claiming her 19th Top Fuel victory to break the all-time record for women drivers previously held by legend Shirley Muldowney. Her JFR Chevrolet Accessories dragster delivered when it mattered most, edging out Shawn Langdon by just nine feet with a 3.704-second pass at 337.33mph in what she’s calling a “special” win as she prepares to step away from driving.
• Let’s talk about consistency – FORCE secured her 58th career No. 1 qualifying position and sixth of 2025 with a Friday run of 3.697 seconds that topped out at 338.85mph. That speed gives her nine track records this season alone, proving she’s not just winning but dominating the technical side of the sport. Her semifinal run showed pure grit, losing cylinders mid-track but keeping her foot planted to advance over Stewart who went up in smoke.
• The weekend showcased exactly why we need more women in these seats – FORCE’s ability to read the track, make split-second decisions under pressure, and deliver clutch performances when the championship stakes are highest. Her announcement that she’s stepping out of the driver’s seat makes this historic win even more meaningful, cementing a legacy that future women drivers will chase for years to come.
