On Sunday, April 27, 2008, Ashley chalked up her first victory at the NHRA Southern Nationals to become the first female driver to win a national Funny Car event.She powered her Castrol GTX Ford Mustang in a run of 4.827 seconds at 320.36 mph at Atlanta Dragway, smoking all competitors including her dad, John Force.
She told the Associated Press, “I'm just happy to win an event. That was the main thing. Being a female, that's exciting as far as the records and everything, but my team, we just wanted to get our first win. We went a whole year last year and got close a few times. To finally get it done, we're just so excited.”
Said John, “"I'm proud of her. She did her job. She didn't do anything stupid at the starting line. ... I love her."
