I was thinking about the "Cheetah" mode for Model S and how a similar launch mode could be (easily) built for the Model 3.
With the Model S, you can use the air suspension to lower the front (may raise the back) just before launching. On the Model 3 we don't have air suspension but cheaper shocks/springs/coilovers.
Could it be possible for Tesla to develop a launch mode for the Model 3 by loading up the suspension? Would this even add a benefit to launching from a dig/stop?
I.e. My thinking is to have the front/rear motors run reverse of each for a few inches, putting pressure on the suspension. The other option is to apply front brake while moving the rear wheels a few inches, similar to line lock.
P.S. Maybe Tesla should release a line-lock for us to do nice juicy burn-outs
