When you set up the PW they will add a second breaker box and you decide what circuits will get backed up. I excluded my A/C and pool and reserve only 20% for power outages as I have regular outages but seldom for more than a 10 minutes, max 2 hrs. I added solar primarily to always have a...

Hmmm, so what happens if I send my Model 3 out as a Robotaxi and it starts to rain?

Sorry, but it sounds like the white Tesla was driving as poorly as the Cherokee if not more so.

Wheels & tires and front brake rotors in Northwest Dallas Texas. Virtually no miles on them as I had aftermarkets parts arrive before the car. $1400 for all.

My rule of thumb is get the smallest wheel that clears your brakes for cost, unsprung weight, compliance, damage avoidance. I would have used 18's if could. Mine are TSW Nurburgring via EV Tuning Solutions, 19X9 ET32 with 245/40 PS4s. https://photos.app.goo.gl/FQTviqrXE3M3wbhU8

That's great news, thanks for the update, I look forward to trying it out on my P3D-. I will post a track video as soon as I can. I finally feel whole, with the 5K and now TM and I feel I have a performance bargain. Also, yes, I am still on 2018 version.

I considered Turo but have heard too many stories like this. I recently saw Hagerty started a similar service called DriveShare targeted more towards collector and enthusiast rentals so I've listed my old daily driver, an '06 911 6 speed. I anticipate a better clientele geared more towards...

I sent an email last week, no reply, I called in and was offered a check or FUSC, then they replied email. All is well on the money side of the equation. Strongly agree with my fellow stealth owners. The obvious and annoying irony is we are probably some of the most eager to track the car. I...

Copy that, personal prefs will change the price. My goal was to build the cheapest track prepped P3D while minimize unsprung weight and maximize brake performance. Almost there, just need track mode to put it all to good use.

As I said, The MPP rotors are $1380 with an offset, you don't need new calipers. I've been running them since September. The $2-300, I was talking about selling the stock rotors in that context.

I saw the Aero's going for $1400-$1500 when I ordered in July. The rotors should go for $200-$300.

rotors are more important than calipers, they dissipate the heat. PUP rotors are bigger and the calipers are different the MPP rotors are even bigger than the PUP rotor and use aluminum hats so lighter than the smaller rotor

EV Tuning Solution, TSW 19 X 9 Nurburgring with MPS4S 245, MPP / Girodisc front rotors, Hawk pads.....$4220 - 5% first order discount = $4009 The MPP rotors come with offsets for the smaller calipers so no need. https://photos.app.goo.gl/FQTviqrXE3M3wbhU8

Waited to see this play out. Happy to get the appropriate $5K, no interest in FUSC. Now we need a sensible Track Mode policy then I will install my SS brake lines and Hawk pads and sell the 18" aeros and stock rotors and all will be right in the world.

Update for other P3D- owners: I ordered a 2nd P3D and was offered 80% of MSRP or $51.2K for my P3D-. That's obviously not a viable option so we'll have to wait and hope they release TM for us.

THANK YOU! See, Daniel gets it..... track guy

MP3Mike, Relax brother, you're trying to use math where none is necessary. TM isn't magic or a silver bullet and it doesn't fix stupid. If someone doesn't have common sense to know when their brakes are fading then no software or rotor size is going to save them. If TM is using brake oriented...

I understand what you think they are doing and I'm saying if they, Tesla, are then it is wrong-headed. We aren't budging each other so I suggest we agree to disagree as we will know soon enough.

So how do you insure the rotors aren't worn past that amount? or the pad material is sufficient? or the operating temps are within range? etc, etc, etc. Tracking a car is just pushing your exisiting equipment harder than normal. Track Mode should improve those efforts. The moment you start...

Not yet. Best case scenario I get some restitution for devaluing my car and get track mode and put even more money into mods. Worst case is I trade in the P3D- for the new P3D, strip off and sell the "upgraded" components and put my mods on it.

This is very interesting, thanks for that.

Respectfully, no, I don't, and no, they don't. To plan track features around specific hardware is a fool's errand, they have to be hardware agnostic. People who track are going to change wheels, tires, pads and fluid at a minimum and probably add 2 or 3 way adjustable coilovers. All Porsches...

Sorry, agreed, of course, it's not intentional, but the effect is still punishing as someone who genuinely wants to explore the cars limits. I came up with a theory. Did they offer the P3D- to allow it to use or achieve efficiency numbers of the harder tire and aero wheels to as it was an...

You are making my point. No one knows what changed or why its restricted including Tesla employees, I've asked at every level I can. I asked a Service Tech at the Dallas store what are the rotor sizes? "I don't know". Got a parts catalog with specs? "nope". However, I do know the precise...

I don't. I'll see what they say and let you know. I'm trying to force their hand a little here. I am not great at hoping things will break my way when there's an clear and obvious path to the outcome I want. Having thousands of customers feeling jilted and waiting is not acceptable. And...

To get Track Mode I've ordered another P3D and will be trading in my P3D- , I'm very interested what they offer. Waiting for a call back from Showroom manager. Will LYK

What does "much different" mean. No one at the service center could tell me. What exactly is the difference and precisely why does it preclude my using track mode. Since I'm gonna track it anyway wouldn't it be better than not? And why does Tesla or anyone care if I'm waiving any liability on...

I must have track mode. I've called but no one I spoke can answer anything, they just put me on hold or transfer me. I decided to try trading in my P3D- for the P3D (no + needed now) and see if that elevates the issue. I placed the order Friday and now waiting for a call from local...

Just called support and they said they don't anything about a refund list and a remedy is still being discussed and I will be notified.

Agreed. That is the main concern and disappointment with Tesla since payment. It took 10 weeks to get a refund of $3500 deposit after overpayment by my bank. And of course the unprompted 2 week delivery promise was missed without any notification beforehand nor update leading up to the...

A a non PUP performance owner I would prefer the cash, never used supercharging, but to recoup my "value" relative to the new pricing I would take the $5500 Enhanced Auto Pilot update, curiously similar, and call it a day. Wouldn't "cost" Tesla anything. Surprisingly, I've not heard this...
