Speaking of electric cars, has anyone seen a Honda Insight or GM electric car (forgot what they were called) go out to an autocross event? All that torque at low rpm should be beneficial but the hea

I got to take an EV-1 out on a cone course at the GM auto show in motion when it was in town. It was a lot of fun. Not because they're great handling cars, but becase they aren't. Low rolling resista

Believe it or not, CalClub actually has a class for electrics in our sup regs. Don't recall what it says exactly. One of our long time board members was planning on building an electric at one time

The Insight is a three cylinder motor that has electric assist. Not very fast or powerful. The hot hybrid should be the Toyota Prius. Electric powered with gas assist. It can get out of its own way.

I drove a GM EV1 electric at a GM ride 'n drive thing last year. They had all their cars (and the competition) on various mini autox courses grouped by car type. Only got one lap but it was not bad (

Yes, but it only weighs 1800 lbs. Gives it a power to weight of a CRX HF but with more low end torque. Certainly nothing I would autocross, but if I had to drive into Boston everyday I would consider
