You really think Tesla should be doing much better than they currently are? Tesla is the fastest growing car company since Ford made the Model T and they have incredible margins. They build giant factories in less than 2 years for 1/10th the cost of other auto makers.
Not sure what you want from the man lol.

There are a LOT of cars that can hang with the plaid for way less effort than a 4th gen supra, any V8 car really, can do it if you are using a car that has good support like the US brands. 1000chp is very common and many combos are around now in drop in packages for the Camaro/vette/dodge cars and crowd seeking missile.

No that's the standard 60-120 test run, simulates you exerting dominance over something on the interstate. My Audi does it in 7.8 with 60-70 degree weather and about 7.9-8.0 over that due to intercooler strain. Faster cars do the 100-150 bracket, once you ride in something that 100-150s in under 5 seconds it totally changes what you think fast means.....this is also why no matter how many times I drive a tesla they just feel like they drop off over 80-90 because they just hit a wall when other cars don't till around 150.

Jackson Palmer, one of the creators of Dogecoin, the cryptocurrency Elon has been promoting
https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/...082330556.html
He probably called him that because it was a Crypto that was created as a joke. By promoting it, the price shot up and Elon probably made a fortune while people following him sunk money in it (I know lots who did) lost big after it crashed

Palmer is probably just butthurt because he left the crypto market in 2015 and didn't make anything from DOGE. Many reports on the web have his net worth at $1 million. lol

The Plaid models actually do better in the top end because they lose too much traction in the first 70mph. Take a look at how good this top end is...they pull on the top end, a Porsche Turbo in a Model X Plaid with 6 people in it

The issue is the unprofessional and irresponsible way Elon goes about expressing those feelings. When he wrote that letter he knew it would be public...hell he probably leaked it.

Agreed. And if you don't like a person don't read about them don't read their tweets. Problem solved.
