The force sent Force's car spinning across the track in a ball of flame, coming to rest by a concrete barrier.
Miraculously, the veteran driver walk away from the car under his own steam.
"Force was alert and was examined onside by the NHRA Medical Team before being transported to a local medical facility for further evaluation," an NHRA statement read.
"He's one tough son of a b***h, I know that. He'll be back," Force's teammate Austin Prock told TSN Sports.
"It's just tough to see somebody go through that. I hope he's all right.
"Keep him in your thoughts and prayers. I know he'll be back."

"It's time, hang up your helmet. You've won everything. This should be it," said a third.
