Well, I'm happy to report my good buddy, and fellow to4r.com member, John Firth, is the latest 6-speed driver to break into the nines!! John has been nibbling around the edges for awhile now, having ran a couple of 10.0x ETs before, so you can just imagine how stoked he and his friends are with his latest achievement.
I actually received word from John much earlier this evening, but lost track of my celly for about five hours or so; otherwise, I would have posted this much earlier in the evening.
I don't know if John has instituted in recent power changes, and I'm sure he'll chime in and fill in the blanks, but he had been at 740 wheel for some time, even when he ran the very low 10s. If still true, this would be one of the lowest whp ratings for a 9-second car in my memory. Some of you follow the drag scene much more closely than I, so we'll see and wait to hear from John.
BIG CONGRATS to you, my man. I always knew you had it in you.
Ken.
