Really? Drag racing a Prius and Insight?

It's liking racing turtles. There's no point.

Exactly, kind of like what sports car owners say when they read about people on this forum modding yari.

Stock vs. stock, the Prius is almost a full second quicker to 60 mph.

Yet, the Prius gets 50 mpg, the Insight 41 MPG.

= Prius "owning" the Insight.

The Prius is definietely quicker on the track, even in the corners it looks like kit takes the Insight.

That and Keiichi was driving the Insight. With spray! haha
