We’re all pretty familiar with Ashley Force, the divine drag racer who’s very easy on the eyes. Well, Ashley also happens to have a cute sister by the name of Courtney, who’s also following in her sibling’s footsteps on the NHRA circuit.
Lucky for us, we’ll be able to follow Courtney’s trials & tribulations through the season as she starts work writing a new column for USA TODAY. Today marks Courtney’s journalistic debut, as she gives us some background on her racing lineage and what she expects to accomplish this summer.
(And we give you more pics after the jump.)
Although she’s all ready to burn rubber, Courtney still knows the value of a good education:
I promised my parents I would finish college before I started racing full-time so I am currently enrolled at Cal State Fullerton working on a degree in Communications. My rookie year in Top Alcohol Dragster was a lot of fun but I am ready to get into the meat of my second season.
Maybe this USA Today column can count towards college credit.
Anyway, here’s some more photos of Courtney that might get your motor running. But don’t overheat - after all, she is only 20 years old.

She's not bad. In fact, I just left skid marks in my shorts

Not seeing it. Average.

I think she is above average because she's got that girl next door look. You won't see her on the cover of a magazine, but you'll be able to see her from the bushes outside her house at 10pm on a school night. She's the kind of girl that you wanna date, not just how fast you can have a burn-out in your pants.

She is a damn site better looking than Danica. Too bad she is not in IRL.
Force sure did cook up a couple of good looking girls.

The real test of beauty is seeing a woman coming out of the shower with her hair slicked back and no makeup. I don't think Courtney passes that test. So I rate her as average.
And the bushes thing on a school night - pretty freaky.

I actually think she would look real good coming out of the shower…

There's three of them, Brittany is the other sister. Thank god they're not in IRL. Even with the press the fan base is a whole lot stronger in NHRA and the drivers are not stuck up prima donas.

Ashley, Brittany, and Courtney are all beautiful and talented girls. They represent the sport well, and I'm glad they are in NHRA and not IRL.
