Ray D’Alessio “special” on John Force’s comeback

Forces on CNN, Westways, and even in Wal-mart

Thanks to the amazing stories of Ashley Force’s first career win, the inspiring comeback of her legendary father, John, and the growing popularity of both, images of the John Force Racing team have been showing up far and wide.

A CNN special produced by Ray D’Alessio that focuses specifically on John Force’s comeback from career-threatening injuries incurred in the crash of his Castrol GTX Ford Mustang Funny Car last September at the Texas Motorplex in Dallas, Texas, will air this weekend on CNN Headline News.

The piece, developed from an interview last month in Atlanta before the Summit Racing Equipment Southern Nationals in which Force was runner-up to his daughter, Ashley, will air twice an hour between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m., Eastern time, on Sunday, May 25.

  2. Headline News - twice an hour between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m., Eastern time, on Sunday, May 25. They use a video “jukebox” (for the rolling news wheel) so the time each hour is likely to be somewhat random.
