The actual usable performance of the Tesla S is on par with the M5/M6. We're definitely getting "there"
Ask the guy who has to keep going to another lot to charge his car session after session at the track.

You will never drive a tesla on the track as hard as possible for 30 minute session after session after session as you can an m5/6. Battery will just die. I have personally seen this a few times already.

Have you seen Top Gear take the tesla coupe (whatever its called) on their track? Couldnt even finish one lap.

Max power numbers are nice but useless if you cant use it.
