Dan Rear should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I'm getting lost here chaps. Are we saying there were/are only 2 JM9s made, thats why I think FWIW - the Lees/Goodwin car, and the Arnold one. One is still in UK with Ritchie, the other with Jim B in US/Canada.

I still maintain the Nugent car was a 1979-80 model, a JM5, and NOT an 81 JM8/9. The 2 models, ie the 79/80 and 81 cars were distinctly different. I think the sequence is as follows :

JM1X 1979 convert of a 78 F3 car
JM5 1979-80 'new' car, similar to the classic JM6 F3, 2 made for Nugent and Rackham
JM9 1981 car, the equivalent to the awful JM8 F3 car - 2 made, Lees and Arnold.
JM11 1982, one only and slightly RT3-4 looking.

How do we think about the above ??
