With delivery times for the MS (LR) a year out, I don't think they feel compelled to goose sales anytime soon.

32F? Wow. What tires are you on?1 hit this evening, testing traction on a cold day . 78%SOC View attachment 736613View attachment 736614
It was cold , I'm on michelin PS4 20s . Run was in DSM mode , still had 18 minutes remaining for peak performance
Yeah, the PS4S is a great tire. I got a 20” version on lighter and wider rims than the stock 21’s.Interesting to see this. IMO, this seals the argument on 19" vs. 21" in terms of performance on a non-prepped surface. The 19" car had more charge, and no passengers, and it still lost. It probably had anywhere from 150- 200 pounds less weight! In a situation where both cars will spin and traction is the limiting factor, the better tire wins, regardless of sidewall and wheel size, and PS4S tires in this case are that. And they both got off the line at the same time. Be really sure to read the description on this video:

Then it would be basically identical. I still think the 21s would have an edge, as those tires are specifically developed for Tesla and those torque loads.Yeah, the PS4S is a great tire. I got a 20” version on lighter and wider rims than the stock 21’s.
I wonder how 19” PS4S tires would do on stock cardenio wheels vs. stock 21” PS4S on arachnids?
Nah then I'll go to EndlessQuad as the only thing beyond Plaid would be quad motor!!!What happens when the Plaid is replaced with something else??? Are you going to change to EndlessCardigan or whatever comes next?
There have been lots of videos out there showing they're almost identical. Maybe a slight edge to the 19s.Interesting to see this.

Actually, there has always been an edge to the 21s. Over the past 7 months, many 19" owners have tested their cars on the street, and the track. On the street, the 19s appear to be notably slower, doing in the 9.4 to 9.5 second range at a high 140s trap speed. The 21s consistently put down ~2.0 second 0-60 and low 9.2 second range times on the street. On the drag strip, they are substantially closer, but the 21s are still marginally faster, at 9.23 to 9.25 at 150+ mph, and the best I've seen in the 19" case is 9.3 at 150+ mph.There have been lots of videos out there showing they're almost identical.

There's something not right about this race. My feeling is the red car's battery was warmed up and the MSM battery wasn't warmed up. If the MSM car's battery wasn't fully warmed up, it makes a night and day difference.
