The car's that I was aware of chronologically were as follows;
My own 2lt n/a Hart 420R Caterham 7 which ran 10.13 secs @ 134 mph back in 2006
Neil Booth's Westfield Hayabusa Turbo at TOTB in 2007 with 9.86 secs @ 154 mph (which I think is the one you are referring to)
The Hahlin "7" from Sweden which used a Volvo turbo engine and ran 9.30 secs @ 148 mph a few years after that
Russ Pursley's 7.2lt V8 Dutton on nitrous which was the first into the 8's with 8.92 secs @ 149 mph in the last year or two

All being road going two seater doorless sports/kit cars.

I think Andy Forrest's Honda Westfield is likely to be quicker than Duncan Cowper's Dax at going around corners.
