Re: insight
some guys at the local auto cross are racing these.. two actualy, they put some nice sticky tires, and are very competative.
i think it's that whole instant torque and hp, something about there being no curve in the power out put per rpm.. some one correct me if i am wrong....

Just one example:

Four out of six Insight owners broke 90 miles per gallon on several individual legs of the road rally, including Naoto Inoue of Kennebunkport, ME, and Ed Dempsey of Dempsey World Record Associates in Santa Ana, CA. Both owners achieved 93.2 miles per gallon, the highest fuel economy during the road rally.

you'd save money buying a big block nova for $400 and paying for gas rather than paying 30+K for a hybrid lol
