Wow thats a fast qtr mile. Any more info about this car? I haven't seen any articles about a prius race car other than the prius gt, this car looks totally different.

Only two links I have been able to find so far

First one quotes

Toyota Motorsports technical group director Chuck Wade says that 241km/h (150mph) is realistic.

"We are aiming for 150mph but there is a bit more work to be done."

That is pretty good considering the drag coefficient is .26 IIRC. I wonder just how fast they can make the Prius go.
