A friend is considering buying a Model Y and was wondering if there was any referral program for existing Roadster Owners - aka ME. Anyone know anything? Thanks

My roadster needs servicing and I learned that scheduling is only done via the Tesla App. I loaded the App on my phone and when I attempt to login I get the message "Sign-In Failed - There are no products linked to your Tesla account". I tried resetting my password - no help. I sent a...

Just an update - I literally just finished range charging and it turned off at 224 ideal miles - that's 90%+ of the original range. I'll let it sit a few minutes before I take off.

A little over 9 years, 35k miles, range charge about 215 miles. I've have range charged numerous times and raced it about 20 days so some hard driving / charging between track sessions.

Can anyone suggest the best tires for track racing. I have Michelin Pilot Super Sport and I was hoping for something better. It's a little scary when the rear end is in front of me.

I do NOT believe that is correct. I usually charge at 40/240 and the rate at which the yellow ring flashes slows down as the battery "fills" - this is noticeable long before that charging rate tapers.

Total weight savings for all 4 rotors was/is 10 lbs. I kept mine just in case I need them in the future.

I've never done autox but have raced Willow Springs - Streets and Big Willow, and 3 days at Laguna Seca. It's fun but scary putting a valuable car into some of those turns.

That was ME !

Laguna Seca is a BLAST - 3 days in June.

Any idea of who in So. Cal could instal these?

I'm not going to dispute what any of the experts have said because they certainly know more than I ever will ... but... FWIW, my car is 7+ years old, 30k miles and while I have NOT abused my battery, I have in no way "babied" it. After a HARD 3 days of racing in June at Laguna Seca my range...

Thanks, I would have thought that ETs would have been in 1,000ths - Hell, in the early 70s my ETs from Great Lakes, US 30, et. al. was in 100ths.

Curious if you have more precise times? With rounding a .1 second difference could be relatively small or large.

Nick, My best time was on day 3 at 2:03.6 using a SOLO timer. I had new AD07's front and moderately worn MPSS on the rear. I'm rather cautious with the car so I don't expect my times at any track to ever be impressive - but I do have fun. All my other track days (about 12) have been on Streets...
