I'm quite puzzled by that too.
I am wondering if Range mode, which other charts has shown applies the initial accelration more progressively, actually gives the battery/inverter less grief, so the power actaully holds in there a bit longer before tailing off. This could well be what the OTA software update addresses that Elon promised soon back in January (which doesnt seem to be in 6.2?).
I had a great time. Probably the best story is from my first run. There was a group of kids with their various Mustangs and the first one of them (a 5 liter GT) ended up slotted next to me. He was telling his friends he wanted to let someone else in front of him so that he could get a "good race." His buddy said "Dude, that guy is going to kick your ass. That's one of those new Teslas." His friend was right.
Because it was a test and tune day, I ran against some highly modified rides, so I also got schooled a couple of times. One guy had a tubbed out Honda with no interior, N2O and I don't know what the heck kind of drive train, but he beat me to 60' and never looked back.
Always the best thing about these days, great mix. Fantastic camera angle - shows that launch superbly.
