You know someone at Porsche was like “Hey the Tesla has broken down! Quick send out a Taycan”! Read more

Track owners have renamed that portion of the course, Schadenfreude Corner.

I agree 100% about the Electric GT thing. I wanted so badly for that to work. I even considered getting a Model 3 for development, but the attitude of Tesla is grotesque. They wanted nothing to do with racing, and they essentially told everyone to stop messing with their cars. I have always had my suspicions about Read more

Honestly, that’s what I hope comes out of this schlong-measuring contest: another fast EV that can stand up to track time. I wanna see these things finally stand up to multiple laps without going into reduced power mode. Read more

It didn’t just apply extra braking to the rear axle, which is something you can already do with existing brake bias controls - it’s that it allowed braking ONE of the rear wheels.
