Tesla Corsa 4 at Laguna Seca 6/28-29

[MarcG]

I signed up for Tesla Corsa's fourth event, which takes place in Laguna Seca on June 28th and 29th:

Tesla Corsa – The world's first Tesla-only track day experience!

I'll be there for both Friday and Saturday sessions in the Advanced/Expert group (there is one other group for beginner & intermediate drivers).

Who else is going? Any interest in renting a house on AirBnb for Friday evening? (check-in is at 7am on Saturday morning!)

Hope to see you there!

Bump - one week to go!
No one on here is attending Tesla Corsa this month?

 

[MountainPass]

See everyone there!

I'll be spectated on Saturday, and driving in the Refuel event on Sunday. Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Awesome! What will you bringing?

Probably a Model 3...

I meant parts-wise. MountainPass is a company that specializes in EV-specific parts (you’ve probably heard of the Nomad wireless charger), so I was wondering what are the latest gadgets they’ll be bringing to the paddock:

I was mostly kidding. I'm very aware of what Mountain Pass offers, as I'm running their suspension and braking components.

I don't know that they're bringing anything other than support for their customers, and their top-notch driving skills to shred some EV records.

my guess would be a prototype front arm with camber adjustments!

Lol sorry, I was on mobile earlier and didn't see you sig with all the MPP goodies

How come you're not participating in TeslaCorsa with your tricked out P3D+?

Mostly a timing issue. I'm 7+ hours away, and can't hit the road until Saturday morning because of work priorities. Same reason I have to leave early-ish on Sunday afternoon. I enjoyed the last 2 events though.

Too bad, I'm taking Friday off to enjoy a less-busy track but will also be there on Sat.
Stop by and say hello when you get in on Sat afternoon!

Hoping they bring Sasha and a car that can beat Lucid Motors 1:39.30 lap time.

I have a feeling they will. My guess is they'll use Friday and Saturday to dial it in, and then blitz the Refuel TT on Sunday.

Time to test the MPP brakes..

The ICE cars made up for the lack of rumble by the Tesla's. Very cool day

Mountain Pass says they broke the EV production car record but I can't find the time anywhere! Inquiring minds want to know.

Broke the production car based EV record by nearly 2 seconds. Very impressive!
Right in between Randy Pobst's Porsche GT4 (1:37.43) and BMW M4 GTS (1:37.66) times.
I wonder what the total mod list is?
Slicks
Coilovers
Front and rear camber arms

Add to that list rear toe arms, front upper camber arms, F/R rotors, and major driver mod.
