Weight bias? How much Tesla weight is on the back wheels? Or is it AWD?

The cheap version is two wheel drive, it will be two years before they will be selling the Ford or the Tesla
Retest then... who gives a $hit anyhow...
In my 65 years I've yet played tug of war.
Stop light racer yes, that's why I ordered the tri motor big battery
My brothers model S has killed some, red light racers, at 75 years young he's still likes to play that's why he bought the twin motor version.Last edited by CUDA; 11-27-2019 at 02:22 PM.

So when is the point when we load our boats up with 1000s of lbs of batteries and go for a rip?

Brother , you hit that one right .....
Them poor things I remember (statute of limitations has to be up) "test riding" them things ... back behind the store on that road beside the golf course. Only way to get one to leave, was to hold the brakes, turn it wide open and feed it clutch till the boost gauge moved .. then let go of the brakes and clutch at the same time .. if it lost boost .. ya had to drag the brake again.. I'm truly surprised the bikes .. and I survived that period of my life .
I take that back , now that I think about it ... I killed a few really nice bikes ..
E.P. I left you a private message .. we need to meet up in the keys this summer .. break bread , I think it will be 35 years since we worked together .. good excuse as any ..
95 HP .. not bad for a lil more than a half a Litre ...

Jessie James on electric vehicles ..
I would like to start of by saying electric cars and motorcycles can F*ck Off!. Ok now that we have that out of the way I can explain exactly why.
First and foremost let’s talk about the Ohh so “planet friendly” Formula E racing series. Now at first glance you might think that this “clean” form of racing must be the way of the future, right?? Not so much. Let take a peek at what’s really going on.
The very first indication this might be Bull**** is the 20 CAT Diesel generators in the pits running full throttle charging the batteries for these cars. Each car uses two 550 pound Lithium batteries per race. These batteries put out 250KW of power, and have a maximum output of 54KWH (kilowatt hours). On the high side the average U.S. home uses about 20KWH of power per day. One Formula E car, in one race uses four times that in 50 minutes. The recent Hong Kong race had 25 cars on the grid, using fifty 550lb Lithium batteries in 50 minutes. That’s a total of 2700 Kilowatt Hours. Or more than enough to power 10 homes for a month. That’s a lot of juice! Also the five power-plants in Hong Kong are powered by Diesel, Coal, and Gasoline. Whoopsie!
Now let’s take a look at these newfangled Lithium batteries. The big companies hawking electric cars and motorcycles would love you to believe that Fossil fuel is so harmful, and electric power is so clean. It’s actually the opposite. We are swapping a carbon monoxide problem that is fixable and controllable. For a toxic Lithium mining that kills wild life, ruins the water table and destroys agriculture. The mining process uses a ton of water. A million gallons of water per 2 metric tons of lithium(Each Tesla has 12 kilos of Lithium). In some South American countries like Chile. Lithium mining uses almost 70% of the countries water supply. Also if you are naïve enough to think that there isn’t a bunch of diesel powered machinery used in the process? Think again. These Lithium batteries also leave a toxic footprint on the way out. Contamination of landfills and seeping into the water table......…
