Tesla's are so stupid rofl. And is Elon just trolling people with a Plaid model or is it homage to Spaceballs?

First race starts at 09:20, if anyone else doesn't want to sit through a bunch of commentary.

I was waiting for the quarter mile times, to see just how good or shitty each driver is. You need experience to get street tire to hook well, and even with experience, it doesn't always happen. Getting a good hook is part of what makes Drag racing fun. Regardless, the Tesla should always win, but it could have been closer.

For reference:
Professional drivers with slicks and optimal conditions achieved (1/4 mile):
McLaren 720s ($230k+): 9.9s
Tesla Model S Plaid ($130k+): 9.2s

Man this brings back memories. Wonder how long it will last.


Edit: Way to ruin things. Man this is not good.
