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.
