A official Tesla declaration of a chrome underline for the Acc. Boost, with the matching dual motor chrome underline displayed on the "About your Tesla" Screen would be perfect IMHO.

Personally, I would prefer the about screen update over the car emblem. Perhaps provide an purchase option for a self install emblem.

Someone has even suggested a "dotted" line underneath the Dual Motor markings! LOL! I kind of like that, but I doubt I'd ever apply it.. =) That said, I'm not waiting for anything nice onscreen, but the chrome underline (or other suitable color) would have been nice to see onscreen.
 
From Abstract Ocean. A little too big, and is much thicker than the dual motor badge.

Lol I be waiting patiently.

And on that note, I just managed a 3.46 second 0-60 time (w/ 1' rollout). :p

93% SoC, 71 F, 40 PSI.

This Sunday I plan to hit the drag strip and GoPro record it as well.

very nice!!! It’s currently 25 degrees here. I’ll try and go out this weekend when it’s getting up to 60. Good luck at the track!

Thanks!
I have 2 questions for you:
1) your 93% SOC is achieved supercharging it to 100 % and drive it to 93% allowing to clear the dots on regeneration bar?
2) Could you set your Dragy setting in ( temporarily, then you can revert ) in UNIT-> to Metric? (it will shows your 0-60mph in 0-100km/h if you not lifted the foot just at 60mph) -
It's just to see the time needed to go from 50km/h to 100 km/h.
My best on 50 to 100 k/h (performing a 0-100km/h) is 2.26 secs on the 2nd free 5% upgrade.
Prior to 2nd free 5% upgrade it was around 2.46 to 2.50 secs
I have not the 2K Acceleration boost yet
 
BTW here in Europe (at least in Italy) the Acceleration Boost option is not availabe yet.
I'm performing all the last 0-60mph without the Upgrade just to have a basline, and my best is 4.17 (without roll) and 3.91 (with 1" Roll). with DRAGY
My best distance to cover 0-60mph is 188.81 ft. This is another good parameter to see at .

I got it in Switzerland which I thought just got whatever is offered in the EU. Maybe try again?
 
Thanks!

1) I charged at home L2 to 99%, drove to SC @ 97%, SC up to 99% again then went to test location at around 95% and achieved the time after a few runs.

2) Sure, changed to metric and screenshot is attached for the same run in 0-100km/h

I really thank you. This equates to 2,04 secs from 50 kph to 100 kph, a fantastic improvement compared my best 2,26 (without Boost upgrade)
