So Tesla wants more reasons for people to get distracted while driving? And why the hell is he not focus on releasing EAP which was suppose to be released over a year ago and instead he is doing stupid Easter eggs and ATARI games...
While parked, not driving. Easter eggs are part of the fun for the producer and consumer of a product. And, sometimes, act as a somewhat therapeutic tool for devs. It's not slowing done "real" features like EAP at all and, due to the psychological benefits, might actually accelerate the development of those features.

Try Chill Mode sometime. ;)
 
So..ive been thinking about this. Is the steering wheel capable via software to disengage from turning the wheels? So either with the car in park, you can turn the wheel for the video game and the wheels stay stationary, OR. when parked and turning the wheel for the video game, the actual wheels of your car turn and you mark up your driveway..garage..wear down the rubber... ?

I think it's all software; you can already adjust the responsiveness of the steering (comfort, sport, etc.) so software would surely be able to disengage the connection entirely. Mind you, this is clearly something they want to have perfected 100%! :cool:

How the heck does that work? Last I checked the steering wheel was connect to this pesky steering rack. Do you really want to be beating on that hardware while playing Pole Position?

The torque sensor in the steering system can detect your input without the need to actually move the front wheels. That is how the AP nag works. So, as long as you don't get too excited, the tires should survive. Hopefully, they can disable the rear brake lights also...

Outrun would be a better game than Pole Position. The premise was that you and your hot girlfriend were racing in a Ferrari on beautiful coasts. Could switch the Ferrari to whatever Tesla you have.
win free upgrades in the game and get theTesla performance edition, new tires, a spoiler.

I would love to race the new Roadster or Semi in a video game!
