Emerging Tech Day, May 7, 2011 at Indy Motor Speedway

I'm starting to wobble on driving to Indianapolis. I met this girl (as a result of the Tesla) and the weekend of the 7th may be the only weekend in May we can spend together, and she can't make the trip with me. Argh.

‘If you want to get the girl, this is the car to do it in. If you go to a party and you’re competing with guys with Ferraris, in Los Angeles the one with the Tesla will get her. When we met, Talulah asked me what I did and I said, “Rockets and cars.”
