Mike: Ha! I see.

Je peux dire que tu es correct, Mike: je suis un gars honnete! Mais j'ai aucun probleme avec faire quelque chose pour rassurer les gens qui ne me connaissent pas que je veux seulement proteger mon vieux batterie hybride.

Not worth risking more damage by trying to squeeze anything out of it in competition.

In reality, it will likely be more fuel efficient to run the car as a non-hybrid (even if the battery was 100%) given the specific style of driving we do in competition.
