In the fourteen months since Nissan launched the all-electric Leaf, we’ve seen owners do just about everything with their green ride, from dressing them up for halloween to drag racing, giving them a tow hitch and even racing at Laguna Seca.

For those who don’t know, Autocross is a motorsport in which drivers compete on timed stages designed to reward accuracy and the driver’s maneuvering skills as well as speed.
With an extremely low center of gravity, even weight distribution and plenty of torque from its 80 kilowatt motor, the Nissan Leaf is ideally suited to the tight, precise autocross course.
But while Nader’s Leaf is his daily driving car, it isn’t exactly stock.
