Glock’s Toyota Hot on the Heels of Ferrari in Bahrain

I now see the problem that Tony George faces, the interest really isn't here in the U.S. Oh, congrats to Toyota, it's early, it's testing and your 2 tenths back. That doesn't mean second place at this point. It's interesting that the article that received the most comments, was one that has no answer. Do people who drive hybrids do so to enhance their image of themselves. How can any of us know the answer to this, or care. But long term diesel is the answer, M-B and VW Blue Tec. 50 mpg and >700 mile range,50 state approval and fuel infrastructure in place. All the rest are akin to old articles in Popular Science, fun to think about dream scenarios that the market place can't support.
