>>17396826
Theoretically le mans is roughly 3 miles and Tesla gets '290' miles for each charge. So every 100 laps. Elon is truly seven generations ahead of other car companies. The Porsche and Toyota hybrids are so bad they have to pit every 10 laps or so.

When Tesla submits its 7 seater family sedan it will embarrass Toyota and Porsche who just can't get hybrids right let alone a true electric vehicle.

Tesla will be cruising along for 100 laps while Porsche is refueling on Dino fuels every 10 laps.

Can't believe you kids even watch racing though. Tesla already won le mans as far as I'm concerned.

9.7:1 gear ratio is mistake. nobody needs 2.3s to 60mph.

bolt looks fine as a commuter car (even with 0.3 Cd) , besides it has two features compared to model 3:
-it exists
-it has 240mile range even while being shaped like a brick

>>17397755
>Motorsports do not test true performance and reliability of a car.

Test of reliability and performance not a test of reliability or performance. In other news black is white.

>>17397755
Lol elon know Tesla would get shit on in an actual race

Tesla is GENERATIONS ahead of other car companies. They don't need to worry about RACING which is for fucking boomers. They make the fastest car in the world without even burning a DROP of dino fuel.
Le Mans is fucking pathetic.

>>17396634
They couldnt produce enough laptop batteries for a 24h race

Teslas need to be outlawed and the retarded fanboys need to neck themselves t b h f a m.

>>17398270
Racing is for Boomers?
This is the most terrifying and sad self condemnation of my generation yet. I would rather everyone last one of us turn into transgendered safe space BBC lovers but still love auto racing than have to watch the average male turn into a "auto racing promotes unsafe car culture and all cars should be self driving iphone chargers with wheels" numales.

>>17398280
It would be fucking hilarious, 2 laps then in for a 75 min charge then back out, then find after 18hrs the rapic charging has killed the battery pack and it needs a replacement.

>>17398378
>It would be fucking hilarious, 2 laps then in for a 75 min charge then back out, then find after 18hrs the rapic charging has killed the battery pack and it needs a replacement.

I mean, the tesla works best rapid charging for 20 minutes to ~70% charge.

So, I mean, they do have patents to drop the battery and swap it, and have wanted to do that in the past with regards to cars (supposedly the model S still has that ability), they could rig up something.

But it would be a hilarious shit show. None of those battery packs would have life left on them after a race, and then there's the whole "we track how many times you use ludicris mode and disable it after X uses to protect the battery pack" fiasco.

>>17398378
Edit to Add:

Tesla couldn't even go around the Nurburgring track under full power. It self limited after 3 minutes. To be fair it was a bone stock Tesla, and I assume they'd have to upgrade the battery cooling to actually do a lap.

>“The lap itself was around 10 minutes Bridge to Gantry (in heavy traffic) but unfortunately the car went into a reduced power mode about 3 minutes in due to excess battery heat (at least, that’s my guess).”

It didn't exactly get a glowing review:

>“Yes, it was heavy. Yes, it had almost no mechanical grip. And yes, the steering was as numb as my jaw after a trip to the dentist.

Why not just get a Cayman S way less. Or if you want the performance of the Tesla you could go Prius or Camry.

But corvette won in 2015

>>17398607
Because people think spending $100k on a electric car to save $3k a year in gas is smart.

>>17398607
For it's intended use, a ~60k "luxury" car that costs nothing to fuel, is good for the environment, and can SELF DRIVE on highways, it's an alright proposition.

I'd much rather see their self driving tech in a ICE car. I'm excited to see what self driving cars will morph into. Who wouldn't want a self driving living room for road trips?

It's just hilarious seeing 'progressive' liberals melting down over their hate of the internal combustion engine, who are too busy lording over anyone that they are progressive for driving a car with very real limitations they will never talk about. Shit gets annoying, yo.

wait but Le Mans isn't day to day, It's a 24 hour long race with average speeds of 100+ mph

>>17396768
>faster to 60
and only in that category.

Its like a football team being really really good at scoring field goals. It still doesn't matter because they can't score a touchdown for shit.

>>17399130
w.e Model S would KILL out of the corners on Le Mans I bet. Like I said. These modern electric cars can go 100 laps without pitting and its a FAMILY SEDAN. The porsche and toyotas are pitting every other lap in comparison! Porsche and Toyota just cant catch up to the electric tech in Tesla with their silly Hybrids. Tesla will throw these hybrids into the dustbin of history.

>>17399208
A Model S would run out of juice after a couple of laps at best, and would need alengthy pit stop afterwards to either change the battery pack for a fully charged one or for a 20 minute supercharger top-up.

>>17396902
>le mans is roughly 3 miles

>>17399243
If it doesn't overheat and start self limiting. That's what happened at Nurburgring

OP Here. I posted this as bait but I came back shocked to see people actually believe Tesla could finish a fucking lap at de la Sarthe let alone win the thing.

The absolute state of /o/.

If I see a tesla shill using the word 'boomer' or 'dino fuel' one more time i'll blow my brains out.

I wonder what would be faster around The Ring™

Or
