Was recently browsing through the Grand Prix site and saw an interesting article about Toyota’s plan to enter one of its hybrid Lexus models in the Tokachi 24 Hour endurance race in Japan.

A sucessful showing could provide an important psychological boost to the hybrid movement. Convincing arguments have already been made about the environmental and financial benefits of hybrid technologies. How good would it be if we could point to a winning race against the grunt, muscle and petrol-chewing might of the racing industry!

Heh…I’m a self-confessed petrol buff - buts its worth checking out the article.
