    I have the afternoon free and people want reaction videos... so if you live in the Bay Area and want to play with Ludicrous mode this afternoon let me know.

    Not sure how I'll mount the GoPro yet, but we can figure something out.

    I would be available to have the living daylights scared out of me as I rocketed to inhuman speeds.

    So I got locked from messaging for the next hour due to my new account, but I don't mind driving to mountain view, or wherever is most convenient for you.

    First video of reactions. He has driven a P85D before and was familiar enough with fast acceleration that he was more prepared than most, but you can see the 30-60 reaction is quite different.

    I've had a few people ask me about it at the superchargers, but most are just curious and say the 85 is enough for them. I need to find people that haven't been in a PXXD yet but want to haha.

    That 30-60 change in acceleration looks so crazy!
