Who the hell is thinking how Tesla does on the "track" when buying a family sedan? You guys are obsessing too much about this whole thing. The damn car does 2.4 seconds to 60 already! And people are worried about race track performance? I could care less.
I get the whole image thing, but it matters less than people obsessing about this think in relation to track times.
I think a lot of us are interested in cars, and who is the fastest, or best.
For Tesla Model S/X sales are still important, as is the image of being the best.
Tesla doesn't advertise and this is a great way of generating interest...
it is also a great idea to keep improving the cars...
So it is generating publicity, being seen to be the best, and able to match or exceed Porsche in every aspect.
it is important as people have always thought EVs and Tesla could not match ICE cars in some aspect. When an EV is superior in every way there is no reason to buy an ICE. When a Tesla can match or exceed a Porsche in every way, that helps sell Teslas even though very few drivers ever use a car on a track.
