Vince a.k.a. Talent finally pulled off a 9 second 1/4-mile run.
He was having issues with detroying axles so he turned off the nitrous ... turned off the 2-step rev limiter and just launched the car at 6000 rpms and had a very clean run.

There is documentation of an MR2 jsut squezzing a high 9.9 in Japan, but never in North America.

Video is posted on the official MR2 1/4-Mile Registry:
