There is a lot of talk about Track Mode coming.It would 100% suck, because it is not designed for that test. This is the thing, from the article:
It seems a little funny given that, in normal daily driving, those giant brakes might almost never be activated, thanks to the car's regen capabilities.
From a product perspective if 90% of the people will not use that capacity, why do it? Their product philosophy is to offer the performance even if almost no-one will use it.
With Tesla's product perspective it makes no sense to meet that test. Which is fine - the few of us that want to make the car work in that context can work with engineering firms and manufacturers and make it happen (I hope!)
But it seems unlikely to me that they will release Track mode with the car as is.
It would at least need new pads but I dont see them offering new pads either, just the expensive CCB brake kit, which isn't what the car needs for a road course.
