Torque Steer?

I still want to know if they will eventually display the actual pressure in all four tires. My CTS does this instantly and I can even use the display when airing tires. My Chrysler 300M had it as well but the update was slower.

Anyway, if you are reading Tesla please add realtime tire pressures to the/a display. The more responsive the better. (you could also do the feature like the Nissan's that beep the horn the instant proper tire pressure is attained)

I feel like the car has significant torque steer when you floor it.
My tires all measured 40 psi after I got home last night.
I'm pretty sure it is not a lack of traction that causes it. That feels quite different.
It might be related to the suspension feeling a little soft.

Personally, I feel like there's less torque steer with the steering on standard rather than sport.

Not to resurrect an old thread, but this is exactly what my P85 does. Under full acceleration it drifts to the right.

Both rear tires are exactly 41psi.

At the TESLIVE event it was stated that it was in the next release (after 5.x).

My fuzzy recollection is that it wasn't that explicit. Meaning yes to the "after 5.x" but "next release" is not something I remember being said.
