The wave of the future? Maybe we'll see Volts and Priuses racing at Daytona some day.

Just run a few conductors down the track at Daytona and ...

Seriously, if you can get a Prius or Volt going 200 mph with an endurance of 3200 miles I'll buy one.

Slot Cars? Used to race them on a cold winter day when all others forms of entertainment were’nt available.

“Seriously, if you can get a Prius or Volt going 200 mph with an endurance of 3200 miles I’ll buy one.”

They are using hybrid energy recovery in F1, and as you see in LeMans cars.

Not the same as Prius or Volt. Toyota made a good debut with their hybrid, showing their commitment to hybrid.

GM is unlikely to be up to sponsoring international-leading edge technology racing, in my view.

Corvette is a top competitor in a lower class, however. I believe it is a private entry, not factory.

Obviously VW/Audi, Porsche, Toyota, etc. see value to support their image and reputation with racing in endurance races.

Mercedes, Renault, Lotus and others in F1. Mercedes, BMW, Audi in DTM.
