as my buddy says...anyone can put a big motor in a little car

way to go Rick

That is a unreal time. What MPH did he run? Randall was it not you and your partner who was the first shoebox in the 10's? With your partners 57? I believe it was in Texas? Congrats to Rick and his very fast ride.....I tell people that two WCFB's would equal a good single 750 holley! People just don't understand it....

Great job Rick
That car has been drag raced and held records for a long time.

I was in the stands for his first 10.97 pass, the guy sitting beside me thought the car must be a big block.
