But it dips down into the low 140s with a charge below 50%. G80 stock motor with Femto/ BM3 on race gas, 143 trap. 145 with bigger turbos. So, the plaid would have to be in a low state of charge to get walked.

The plaid still does 120 in the 8th. The quickest g80 is like a 114. Low state of charge is all that makes sense.

And the Tesla is carrying an extra passenger

I actually beat him 4x only the first one he had a passenger lol.

Yawn.
An EV is faster than an ICE engine.
We have known this for quite awhile now.

Wake me up when they can fly.
That’s what I want an EV for.

True, where are the flying cars? This is getting ridiculous

I dig in, and look at this stuff, every few years, it just seems like its never going to get here. I wish Elon was working on this, as much as hes working on Space X, it would be much further along. But he thinks future travel is Boring. I cant believe they didnt even get the Hyperloop off the ground, thats the best idea, ever.

The Plaid motors overcomes what the LR never had, more continuous pull up top but as owner of the S Plaid I can tell you that weight plays a mitigant in speeds up top (past the 130) thus the 720 moving away past that segement.

I dont think it pulled hard either; having done many races on my life and then watching them on the camera, the gaps via video are optically much larger than real life. I remember these videos being posted back to back as I follow AG alot. Obviously no one can confirm if there was fuel bumps but I can see this happening for sure.

I was just basing it on the 60-130 times I saw. How I saw it, was the 720S pulled, this time, where if it was running the same 60-130 it was, the first time, it would think it would have to be going faster, because now, the Plaid, is going the same speed with passengers, as the 720S did, in the first race, about a 6.2, but now the timing gear shows the Plaid is going 6.38 and the 720S is pulling, like, now its probably reversed the roles and the 720S is doing a 5.9.

Just an observation. I've wrong all the time. Just looks like it to me. Maybe Im just seeing things.

Well 1020hp on EV=1020whp for ICE cars (no drivetrain power losses) so crank horsepower on the plaids are more like 1150hp.

So nice to see a 'one trick pony' beaten at its one trick.

Correction, three EV motors are "faster" than MOST PRODUCTION heavily carbon and mpg regulated single ICE engines. Wake me when an EV runs 5's in the 1/4 like the fastest street legal ICE powered car or when they change out the ICE pratt and Whitney jet engines in the F22 for elons Tesla plaid motors. What a joke. Keep it 💯

They're probably going to need a lot more than Plaid motors to counter 70k pounds of thrust.

Yup! That's the power of combustible fuels WAY more energy density than what a battery can store.

I just want true autonomy so I can get drunk and my car can drive me home safely while I nap in the back seat. Until that happens I couldn't care less.
