Yes! That was incorrect statement on the 9 second Honda. The 9 second who
did hold that record pushed over 720HP. Now it is a Ford Focus from the wax
company called Meguirer that will hold the small compact 1/4 mile record.
This car will fly under 8.4 seconds. But it is not a street driven machine
either.
