No, I'm teasing.

Recent work has shown that a hybrid can produce a lot of power. And adding weight to the back would make an interesting change to handling.

Perhaps 911 like? Maybe...certainly not old 991 911 snap over-steer, but maybe 997 or new 991. All that weight in the back plus under-steer with front....sounds really interesting.

I can't see a negative to hybrid. To Chuck's point the instant torque is awesome. Just doing my part to hold off Rush's Red Barchetta future...I'll miss the roar! ...I'm getting old. Haha.
