Video of the Week: John Force's Wild Ride
I missed this craziness during last week's NYC madness, but famed drag racer John Force had himself a not-so-fun ride last week.
He got loose during a race with JR Todd and ended up tangling with him, quite literally, at the track's end. Apparently, he walked away. So did Todd.
There's not much else to say here -- just take a look and be thankful both drivers were OK.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

That's a gentleman racer right there.
The Chevy ran circles around the Toyota. Ok, most of one circle.
