in that it is still about 2 seconds quicker than what a Geo Metro can muster up...a car that gets 30 mpg LESS than the Insight.

E did a burnout with his at the Bristol autox once. I saw it. Apparantly, he did it in the upper lot while they were handing out awards, and they weren't impressed. lol.

If you want a light car to do a swap, go the normal route... CRX/EG, b18c1... the works.

Because the Insight is really really really really light? Even more than the CRX or an EG hatch, especially after you pull out the batteries.

i can understand that, but why buy a hybrid to swap it?
