since no high-performance hybrid vehicle currently exists to the public, i'm assuming you're talking about hybrid systems like those found in the prius and insight. i hardly think this is a valid argument, since these systems were not meant for high performance applications at all.

See my post in N&R, they can't exist for high performance applications.
