At 68-years-old, 16-time NHRA champion John Force is not slowing down on or off the track.
The John Force Racing Funny Car driver has already picked up one event win this season, while off the track he’s getting ready to throw the ceremonial first pitch at the Chicago Cubs vs. Tampa Bay Rays game at Wrigley Field on July 5.
“To go on that field and throw that pitch, I’m going to be practicing,” Force said. “I’m pretty excited. Robert (Hight) loves baseball, and he’ll be there with me. We’ll be on the field where history was made by a bunch of great players.
