BOWLING GREEN, KY.  – The annual Justice Brothers Car Care Products Reunion Spotlight will shine on the Ford Drag Team for their contribution to drag racing history. The Ford Drag Team came to fruition in 1963 and launched the beginning of a quarter-mile partnership that would test the limits of speed and claim many NHRA championships, records and wins. Today, Ford is the official car and truck of NHRA.

The original Ford Drag Team members were Clester Andrews, Dick Brannan (captain), Phil Bonner, Bill Humphery, Bill Ireland, Ed Martin, Les Ritchey, Len Richter, Gas Ronda, Bob Tasca, Mickey Thompson, and Butch Leal. Some of the original members such as Brannan, Ronda, and Randy Ritchey son of the late Les Ritchey will be signing autographs and meeting fans at the Justice Brothers display in the vendor oval at Beech Bend Raceway Park. Don’t miss this opportunity to see some of the Ford Drag Team cars and meet some of the drivers. The Justice Brothers Spotlight award will be presented to the Ford Drag Team during the free Reunion Honoree Reception on Friday, June 18, 7 p.m. at the Holiday Inn Convention Center, host hotel for the event.
