Nice pipe dream but this is going to take its toll. First Batteries are only 85 to 90% efficient with charging and about 90 to 95% efficient discharging. So any power put back into the grid there is going to have to have about 20% more be supplied at another time. Furthermore the wear and tear on the battery pack on the car could easily cost more than what you get paid from the utility.
