And @GonzoDad... I also noticed the significant difference along with a passenger. I was wondering if it was my imagination. Even 30-60 feels much improved.
Has anyone tested the 1/4 mile time since the update to a faster insane mode? Also, at one point, there was talk of a more responsive, faster "mid-range" 60-120 or 60-90, that was in addition to the top end update and the 0-60 update, do we know if that's still coming and if so when? Final question, has anyone tested the faster 0-60 and found it to be in the high 2's or is it just getting down into 3.0 seconds speed now?

Quite easy to see in the tracker - yes, a few people did get .188 after having had .168, but the majority of the upgrades seem to come from .153 (and one came from all the way back .124 - not sure if PhilK really skipped that many versions or just forgot to enter one of the upgrades he got)
i was among the first batch to get .168 and am still awaiting for .188. Hopefully there will be further improvement from my perspective.
Sorry I do not own a stopwatch that is accurate to 1/10th of a second.

Or, I am a little netter than SPORT but not quite insane mode.
Or. FAST and FASTER (quick and quicker?)

I too went form 153 to 188 last night/

Strange, I can't PM you... sorry to clutter the forum... would you mind adding and upgrade entry to the tracker?

I installed .188 update last night. On my first drive today about 5 miles into the drive a warning came up telling me to contact Tesla Service about the TPMS sensor. It can't be a coincidence. Tire pressure is fine on all 4, BTW.

Glad I'm not hallucinating! I'm loving this update, it just feels nice after getting used to the previous performance to get a new punch in power
I also noticed the motor be more, noisy, but not horribly so and worth the tradeoff imo.
Yep I did, and to be honest didn't see any difference whatsoever...

I got .188 yesterday and on the brief drive to the service center for a scheduled visit I thought I did notice that the fun pedal seemed more... "direct" for lack of a better term. It may all be in my head, of course, but yes, I'd say it felt peppier.
And then I got a P85 as a loaner. And I was shocked how sedate and almost sluggish it felt in comparison. This is not intended as a dig on the people who love their P85 and keep telling us that the P85D really is no faster. And the loaner is an odd duck... VIN49503, yet it does have AP (so this must be one of the first AP cars produced - there are cars all the way into the 52k range that don't have the AP hardware). And of course it has the "loaner mode", but I thought that only limits the car to 80 or 85mph and shouldn't affect acceleration. The loaner is on .160, btw.
Anyway, I was very surprised just HOW MUCH peppier the P85D is compared to the P85.

Thanks for the clarification - Hank had mentioned to want to add the geo location as additional information to the tracker. The problem is that our sample is still fairly small so it may not contain enough data to make the geo data relevant, but still, it would be another interesting angle into all that...

P85Sig and P85D with .153 -- even my passengers can distinguish the quickness of the two easily. And I love both.
P85D got .188 last night, but it was wet out so I didn't test it out much.
I suspect your recent update included changes to the pedal mapping. Elon hinted at new pedal mapping coming in 7.0, maybe they are introducing it earlier than expected or are simply trying it out?
