“We started this program last year and continue to work with the local Ford dealers in 2010 because in these hard economic times, we need to help out our sponsors in any way we can. We are proud to be a part of the Ford family and we want to encourage all our fans to head out to a Chapman Auto Group location and test drive a new Mustang, Flex, Edge, Fusion or other great Ford cars or trucks before they come out to the track to see us," said points leader John Force

“We would thank our friends Paul & Pam Vollrath and The Chapman Auto Group for their support in supplying Ford vehicles for us to drive while in town. Our friends Paul & Pam Vollrath come out to different tracks to support us whenever they can," added Force.

John Force Racing also introduced a new element to the marketing mix this year with a John Force Racing Midway display that features a chance for the fans to win trip packages from the Auto Club and Pleasant Holidays, washers, dryers and televisions from Brand Source, a new Ford Fiesta and much more!

“Its programs like this one with Chapman Auto Group and the John Force Midway program that help keep these corporations involved with drag racing, we are fortunate to have all of our sponsors from the corporate level all the way to the dealers and distributors."
