    Model S REST API

    Thanks for the suggestion. That's exactly what I tried directly from the -d command that pulls car location. I'm thinking maybe some sender Lat/lng is needed? even checked the lat/lng on google maps zooms right spot on to my garage. LTE reception maybe?

    Model S REST API

    Trying to get summon to work with the NodeJS sdk. Any ideas? Summon · Issue #100 · hjespers/teslams · GitHub I tried Allen's suggestion of latitude/longitude to lat/lng still getting same error.

    Launch Mode not in V7.1

    Anyone else with a P90D or P85D that should have launch mode not see it in the release notes? I tried: -Ludacris mode -Max power enabled -Hold break. Press accel. All I get is the "both pedals pressed" warning. I don't want to push the accel to hard since you can feel its pushing against the...

    Tesla P90D Ludicrous vs modded Z06

    Great run! Can you post time slips too? The z06 w/ 650rwhp should be in the 10's easily. Must be really hard to launch w/ street tires.

    Motor Trend reports 2.6 0 to 60!! In P90D. Launch control??

    That makes sense. Hope you are right. I'd like to see an update that gets the trap speed to 122. Would love to see a back to back comparison going from the 21"s to a lighter wheel/tire combo.

    Motor Trend reports 2.6 0 to 60!! In P90D. Launch control??

    Ah good to know. Weight is the obvious thing. What else do you think it could be.

    Motor Trend reports 2.6 0 to 60!! In P90D. Launch control??

    You absolutely can. Power to weight ratio matters. Common physics of car racing Removing weight also improves handling and braking (to an extent). Increase power or decrease weight and performance improves. To your point greater the weight the less the improvement in ET but you shouldn't dismiss...

    No what? You don't know the weight difference? Lol thanks

    Motor Trend reports 2.6 0 to 60!! In P90D. Launch control??

    I think you're spot on. When it comes to rolling weight vs static weight it's an even more noticeable difference. So 50lbs saved in wheel/tire weight will have much more impact vs taking out the back seat or something roughly the same weight. Anyone know the 19" vs 21" wheel weight...

    Motor Trend reports 2.6 0 to 60!! In P90D. Launch control??

    Musk just tweeted the report from Motor Trend. 2.6 0 to 60 10.9@ 122mph 1/4 puzzling thing from the article though. It mentions use of the new launch control. is there a launch control? i have a p90d with Luda mode running v7.0 and do not see this. 2015 Tesla Model S P90D w/Ludicrous...

    P90D Ludicrous 1/4 mile time

    Pete and Burt, same comment. Really appreciate your post to show real world data. 121 is a great trap speed. That's moving. If you could shave .2's off the 60ft. Looks like a 10.7 to 10.8 is possible.

    New red P90D in Frisco area (Dallas, TX)

    thanks, well the fastest one previously was the '09 vette w/ stage III cam and lots of goodies. 580hp. It ran 12.0@121 in 3500DA weather. So easily a mid/high 11 car. From a stop the P90D would of left it several car lengths back. Not even close. I pulled a 1.8 60ft in the vette. I think...

    Sugar vs Lithium 10x more power and duration

    So just taking a quick look at the state of battery tech. There is already a discovery that would be a vast improvement to the Tesla line although it would be kind of odd and somewhat "Back to the Future 'esq" to pour gatorade into your Tesla. Sugar batteries have shown to last 10x longer than...

    Hi Everyone, We just got a red P90D with Ludicrous mode . Love it! makes my '09 580hp vette look like a scooter dragging an anchor. Curious if there are any weekly or monthly meets in the Plano/Frisco/Prosper area. I know about Cars and Coffee but anything else up here? I see a couple of...
