    P100D ludicrous+ loses to Model 3?? What the??

    My reality is this: I drive a '16 S P100DL. I am famous in my group for Las Vegas cannonball runs. I've raced it on 5 dragstrips and the only trouble I've ever had was a nitrous Fox body Mustang racecar. I eat 3's for breakfast. I have raced the same car with three different people driving...

    Tesla Sentry Mode in Action

    Back when I first talked with a Tesla sales associate I asked, 'So, with all the safety cameras on my S will it record a thief or destructive behavior?' Sadly the answer was no, it cannot. Yay for improvements! Although no sentry update for me yet. Nothing has happened ever, besides a...

    I am driving a Dec 14, '16 S P100D L with 21" larger in rear. I race every chance I get, I am famous for my cannonballs to Vegas and back. I put a total of 25,000 on my first set with a lot 1/8 to 1/4 mile at a time. I didn't need to change into a new set of Michelin pilot super sports but I...

    Frustrating experience at Discount Tire - HELP!

    Ouch... that first photo hurt. Elliott here: 2 points if I may; 1) I am the only one, other than Tesla employees, who brings a tool near my baby girl... unless emergency services are necessary. 2) Because of #1, and the fact that emergency is my middle name... I carry in my pack of...

    A Positive Thread

    So much discussion of the most beautiful of things in my life, the model S. December 16th 2016 build date, delivery to my favorite brew pub in Traverse Mi, Terra Firma brewery, from California about a two (painfully loooong) weeks later... but that's not where my love affair began... I live...

    New "Chill / Normal" acceleration modes?

    Chill out? Yes, I'm going to enjoy it I believe very soon when we have snow on the roads in upstate Michigan. I like it for all the reason I've read in the thread so far, and I like it when I have more choices. That means I have even more power... and I really like that. Thank you Tesla, I...

    A thread for people with no problems

    Took delivery in Jan 2017. Upstate Michigan, snow on the ground as she was reversed out of the delivery semi. Immediate snow tire installation and I have not looked back since. I drive all the vehicles in my life hard. I've put 16k on her doing everything from a cannonball run out to Vegas...

    Calling All Lead Foots, Racers and Other "Abusers"

    I dragged my car every chance I could this year. About once every four weeks average. I drove in crazy clandestine cannonball race mode to see my mom in the emergency room in Vegas... 4, 400 miles round trip. My car, #3, has already brought so many impossible racing and traveling memories...

    Model S P100D beats 11 supercars in Motor Trend "World's Greatest Drag Race"

    I have known since my first ride after delivery in January. I've been drag racing my car since the track opened in April. I am very impressed. I do loose a great deal to bonified race cars, but the respect my car and I get is exactly why I go back. So, really it's a win win win...
