Are you saying that the numbers aren't true, or that it has other weaknesses that would cause it to lose a race?

- Natanael_L 9y agoOverheating. Like previous models, it likely can't cool down the engines and batteries fast enough to sustain that power output.
- Neil44 9y agoThink of it this way, if some server or database came out claiming incredible benchmark numbers you’d say okay now show me some real world workloads. Same here. 0-60 is an artificial benchmark, a circuit time is a real world workload.

- Neil44 9y agoI haven't said they're making up the 0-60 time. I'm saying show me a test against the competition that lasts for longer than 1.9 seconds. Don't get me wrong it's a deeply impressive vehicle. I'm just not an Elon fanboy and the precise milisecond that what Porsche, McLaren et. al. customers want something like that is when they will start making it. It's not like one company is the future and the rest of them are dinosaurs. One company is small and loosing money and the others are making it, enough of it to buy Tesla any time they feel like it, which being realistic is what's going to happen eventually.
