She&#8217;s the first woman to ever lead the Funny Car standings after an event.<\/p>\n<p>It was Ashley Force\u2019s second appearance in an event final in as many weeks and the third appearance in her last six starts. She remains the only female driver ever to reach a Funny Car final.<\/p>\n<p>I hope this made John Force feel a little better after failing to qualify for the Vegas race.  I wonder if John&#8217;s thinking of gambling instead of racing.  He ended his streak of qualifying at 393 in Vegas.   That mark will never be broken.
