For those with Ludicrous mode, how often are you in it?

[Pezpunk]

i have a P100D. It's my daily driver and I leave it in Ludicrous mode all the time. It's a fantastic feeling!

in terms of how often i use that ludicrous acceleration ... pretty much every single drive i find an opportunity. an on-ramp, a stoplight, passing at highway speed... it comes in handy being able to virtually teleport into a spot in traffic.

OFF TOPIC: PezPunk, I LOVE that color!

99+% of time in “regular” Ludicrous daily-driver mode, preheating battery to at least 80F before driving (using can bus data). The other <1% time in Ludicrous-Plus mode (with battery at 122F) reserved for the rare VBOX-instrumented accel test.

How do you pre-heat the battery before driving?

How do you pre-heat the battery before driving?

Hit the “Max Battery” Soft button on P-cars. Use can bus data to read cell temperature (as well as battery V,I & power, motor mechanical output power, etc. Use an app like “Scan My Tesla”.)

100% ludicrous 100% of the time, as evidenced by my 7500 mile tire life.

stays in Ludicrous.

P85DL. Ludicrous at all times when I'm driving. Because I'm almost always on city streets or crowded freeways, I rarely have a safe opening for power launches, but I love launching the second stage rocket blast from 40 to 60. It is almost as good as teleportation.

When other family members borrow the car, I ask them to drive in Sport, which is closer to what they are used to.

Ludicrous 100% when I'm alone in the car. If I have passengers, I'll sometimes put it into Chill if they are complaining, I really don't want people throwing up and ruining my nice white seats...

awwww, who am I kidding? isn't it +2 points if you are able to make someone wretch? That's the rules of the Ludicrous game!

I just took delivery of my first Tesla and I'm in-love
I got the P100D and tried the various drive modes. To be honest, those modes are a great reminder why I got the P100D.
I plan to leave it in ludicrous mode 99% of the time.

 

[Silent Ludicrosy]

Always in ludicrous. Rarely in max battery.

 

[NSX1992]

Always in ludicrous. Maximum battery only at dragstrip.

What's the benefit of doing this?
