So, Beckman will replace Force for the remainder of the year. That's a good call, IMO; I think Fast Jack will fit in pretty well with that team.
Here's something I didn't realize about the championship points;

"By NHRA rules, when a driver is unable to compete, the race team may employ a substitute who can earn points for the original driver in a maximum of eight tour events. This means when Beckman rolls to the starting line for qualifying at the 42nd annual Lucas Oil NHRA Nationals in Brainerd on Aug. 16, he’ll be pursuing a 17th championship title for Force."
