Hybrid Fest 2008: July 19th & 20th in Madison, WI

Now that you know when it is and what it’s called, I’ll tell you a bit about what it is. Firstly, it’s a bit of a misnomer. Hybrid Fest isn’t really all about hybrids. I know that considering my website is a sponsor that year, and we’re definitely not all about hybrids.

So what is HF really? It’s a get together with tons of green car enthusiasts, including hybrid owners, biodiesel producers, ecomodders, and everyone else. The show will be kicked off early on Friday with a fuel economy competition and next get down and dirty on Saturday and Sunday with speeches, discussions, hybrid analysis drives, and a whole host of other goodies you can find out about on the website. HF will additionally be a

duration for companies to show off new green tech, including some of the big guns like GM and Toyota, but additionally many smaller companies working on things like plug-in hybrid conversions.

If you live anywhere nearby, it should be great fun, and I highly propose you come out. Personally, I’m driving 925 miles from NJ to run a booth and show off my car. whether you care to swing by, I’ll have my heavily modified CRX out for show as well as Ben Nelson’s DIY electric motorcycle. The show was a big success last year, and the plans are even bigger for that go around, so don’t miss the opportunity to see in real life the kinds of things talked about on gas2.0.
