DescriptionMagic Carpet Ride (1492809856).jpg |
I just drove the Tesla (Validation Prototype), and I accelerated more than I have ever accelerated before. I only have the <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/jurvetson/11347828">Formula</a> and Viper cars at Laguna Seca and Sears Point to compare to... and the <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/jurvetson/95012537">X1</a>, and my favorite roller coasters. =) Speaking of riding on rails, the handling in the coastal mountain turns behind Alice’s Restaurant reminded me of summertime <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/jurvetson/283190">bobsledding</a> – sure you can steer, but it feels like you are locked into the groove without sag or wobble. The electric motor has maximum torque from a standing start, and <a href="http://www.teslamotors.com">Tesla</a> just verified that it accelerates from 0 to 60 in less than 4 seconds… and that’s without shifting gears, so even a bloke like me can experience it. Just floor it, and zoom! As a builder of rockets, I liken the experience to Surfing on a Rocket, a theme song I recently discovered by AIR.
