Driving Force is an American reality television program which premiered July 17, 2006, on A&E, and ended on May 15, 2007. It was centered on champion drag racer John Force and his daughters, also drag racers.

Synopsis

The show stars John Force, a driver in the National Hot Rod Association (NHRA), along with his family: daughters Ashley Force, Brittany Force, and Courtney Force, and wife, Laurie.[2]

The show's theme song is "Woman" by Australian band Wolfmother.

Revival

At a press conference on September 12, 2013 in Charlotte, North Carolina, John Force announced the hiring of JMI, Octagon, and Rogers & Cowan Marketing and Entertainment Companies to help rebrand John Force Racing after losing Castrol and Ford as sponsors after the 2014 NHRA Season. Part of the rebranding effort will include a revival of Driving Force, though under a different name, and focusing more on Courtney and Brittany than the previous iteration of the show.[1]
