Les Ritchey, a legendary figure in the world of drag racing, played a pivotal role in the development of the Ford A/Factory Experimental A/FX Mustang. To capitalize on the growing popularity of drag racing, Ford authorized the production of several stock-appearing NHRA-legal Mustangs. These cars were meant to compete in the Factory Experimental (A/FX) class. The partnership between Les and Ronda peaked in 1965, the SOHC 427-cid Ford Mustang that ran mid-10s in A/FX form. However, the Mopar drivers decided to hit the match race trail for no-holds-barred racing with their altered-wheelbase Dodge and Plymouth entries that had been outlawed for A/FX competition, which was the start of the Funny Car revolution. By switching to fuel injection, nitromethane, and later superchargers, they began to run in the nine-second zone and soon dipped into the eights, which overshadowed the 10-second performances of the legal A/FX cars such as Ronda’s Mustang.
