Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room
- Thread starter GreenHokie
- Start date
““The jerky movements and strong G forces (sudden, fast acceleration) make the roller coaster potentially dangerous. The placenta could pull away [from the wall of the uterus], which is called an abruption,” explains OB-GYN Kimberly Langdon, MD, who has nearly 20 years of clinical experience.”

Maybe not the best idea!

100%. This is exciting and fun. Especially as I’m cautiously optimistic there will be an option to uncork more performance somewhere down the road (I hope)

haha fair enough. I don't even know how I'd try to phrase this question to an OBGYN either if they're not familiar with the concept of the g forces from instant torque.I'm not sure it's safe to take medical advice from people on a car forum

Thanks for this. I was thinking of roller coasters as an analogy too, but wasn't sure how they compare with the g forces from instant torque. I've launched our MXLR on freeway on ramps plenty of times with her in the car (0-60 in 3.8s); and she's done it herself a few times while driving too. I suppose i'll need to dial the launches down and let her know too.
I know we don’t have ideal runs for either the US or MIC cars yet. However, the data we do have thanks to Josh and Viperau1 is extremely telling.
If you look at the intermediate 10 mph increments for both 0-60 mph runs below you will see that Josh was losing ground all the way up to 40 mph.
He was down .09 @ 10 mph, .10 @ 20 mph, .12 @ 30 mph, and a whopping .13 @ 40 mph. That is a HUGE amount to give up in only 2.00 seconds of racing.
However, in the next 1.15 seconds and only 20 mph of gain he claws all of that .13 seconds back plus another .02.
The MIC car in this test just about stopped compared to Josh’s car after 40 mph. That is where peak power occurs typically for these cars. This should send up huge red flags for anyone thinking their MIC car is going to trap 123+ mph. I don’t think it will.

the g-forces are just under 1, but the real concern would be further increasing her heart rate. did you guys know that there's a significant increase in a woman's heart rate throughout pregnancy? increases steadily from like high 70's to high 80's.
Just message me on here and I’ll make sure I give you a ride

The bigger concern might be she gonna want the car
i’m so happy you guys are getting ready to test out the 0-60 times and all other speed feats. i may be the only one here not really interested in this aspect of the car. i’m sure that’s all fun, but i ended up on the performance model for the seats+wheels those things pushed me over.
i can’t wait until we all take delivery though. congrats to the lucky ones taking delivery tomorrow.

Cool. I’ll be glued to this forum until I get my VIN. Will be a little bittersweet saying goodbye to my 2020 M3P
Like I mentioned on FB I could feel the tires slipping all the way through 40-50

He said it was raining and roads were wet. Plus slight uphill. Cant wait to see times on a dry surface.
They weren’t just damp lol.
It was raining.
This is a rhetorical question, I am guessing?
I thought you had owned a Tesla vehicle before, and experienced first hand that an individual owner cant do anything about what firmware version is on the car, nor can anyone predict with any type of fashion which version of any firmware Tesla will flag for any specific car.
No doubt the US car will be faster. I would like to get a chance to get a 90+% conditioned SOC run in. I think it will be a bit closer than this. My advisor said I could have a longer test drive in a week or so once the crazy hype dies down a little bit.
