Got back from Toledo yesterday, saw a Tesla S in Toledo and a McLaren F1 on the Ohio Turnpike.
The Tesla was driven by a 75+ year old dude that should have been driving a walker
The Mclaren went for 70mph to HOLY MOTHER OF GOD...in less than 3 seconds.
I was going 74mph and the McLaren pulled up next to me and Im pretty sure he just punched it (didn't bother to down shift) and he was LITERALLY gone in 3 seconds.
I have been around a lot of fast cars,(Jag's, porch, Maserati, Ferrari.. you name it) this was by-far the fastest thing I have seen in a awhile
Why am I the only naked person at this gender reveal party

Battery technology is decades away from making them practical and they're NOT a green alternative because mining and manufacturing the batteries causes mass amounts of pollution.
Hydrogen fuel cell is the future, not batteries.
Is that the same Top Gear that said the Lexus was a piece of junk?

The factory may be big,but I don't trust those batteries one bit,seen to many explode and go on fire!They should go back to NiCads!

The key to it all is energy density. When they can put the power of twenty gallons of gasoline into a battery the size of a twenty gallon gas tank - and do it in 3-4 minutes - then it will all fly. Until then it won't.
My son's boss has some top-go-the line Testa hot-rod and it is Quite impressive. Fast, fast, fast. He moved closer to the office after he bought it though. <g>
We've been producing electric cars for almost 200 years now and the problem has always been the same: the insufficient energy density of batteries as compared to other fuel sources.
As an interesting aside - the world speed record was held by an electric car until about 1900. <g>

When faced with the choice between changing one's mind, and proving that there is no need to do so, most tend to get busy on the proof.

That's what happens when you sell stock in a company. Everybody's a critic -- especially the stock analysts.

It has little to do with being a critic when you just miss, and than lower future guidance!
