Congrats Rick Pike, first '56 in the 10's

I believe Rick Pike's '56 Chevy (SS/MA) is the first legal class '56 in the tens. Mission LODRS 10.96

3400 pounds and 265 CI

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

way to go Rick

Rick,
Congratulations. Your comments are gracious, humble and you're obviously a true class act.
Good luck always,
Frank

SS NA being a 15 lb class Rick is carrying over 3620 lbs I believe

WOW! Congrats!

Is it safe to presume that was the dual WCFB motor? (Even if it was, who'd ever have thought THAT was possible?)

Randall Klein · 05-31-2011, 02:03 PM

Yes, two CFM challenged Carter WCFB's

Ed Wright · 05-31-2011, 02:36 PM

Well over a second quicker than I could make mine run, with a stick, in 1972. LOL

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....
