A friend had his leaf out autocrossing. It didn't do that bad, and didn't deplete the battery as suspected. I have changed some peoples opinion about diesel performance. However, its much older technology and you could see my carbon footprint up in smoke. :-\

Changing public perception isn't always bad. Most people in US think diesel is slow like a semi, reliable as an old GM diesel V8. Electric car = golf cart death trap that will only go 20 yards at 5mph.

Know what I mean?
