Dyno Don Nicholson:
Pretty interesting read if you check him out on Wikipedia.

Nicholson converted a Jerry Harvey 1966 A/FX Ford Mustang to Super Stock, and used the car to win Street in A/Modified Production at the 1969 Springnationals.[2] The popularity of the 9 second heads-up racers led to NHRA forming Pro Stock in 1970.[2] Nicholson prepared a Ford Maverick for the Winternationals in seven days, but did not win. The car was dominant on the match racing circuit, winning 45 straight rounds.[2][clarification needed]

Nicholson's Maverick earned Ford's first NHRA Pro Stock win at the Summernationals in 1971.[2] He switched to a 351 Cleveland-powered Pinto for 1972.
