me too. Don’t worry. It’ll take like a year for the first units to make it to the states. Plenty of time to sell

that so weird my DC fast charging doesn’t take home charging amounts of time to finish and I never get billed for more than 30 minutes …

the Turbo S will be hybridized. It’s already pdk only, awd with turbos, and 3700#. Hybrid will just make it better, and much faster. It ought to get within shooting distance of a Ferrari 296 GTB, so probably just shy of 800hp

Well it’ll never be a consumer vehicle without an entirely different chassis. Still as an aspiration, 3300# with 1000hp is a beautiful dream.

Everybody is bad at these exercises the first time. Your first day isn’t nearly enough time to do more than begin to familiarize yourself with the car and the weight transfer behavior. Most of the instructors are professional race drivers. Even if you were an exceptional amateur, they’d still...

it’s a little difficult to compare, but back of the napkin looks about 5x more expensive than hydrogen. Maybe it does get a lot cheaper, that‘s a dream, but still all bleeding edge science stuff for now. we have decades of experience with H2 in flight. We call them rockets. Only SpaceX uses...

synthetic fuels are far far more expensive than hydrogen. We haven’t seen much progress towards electrifying large shipping vessels. Not saying it has to be hydrogen but there might be a useful niche here and in heavy industry airplanes are challenging for battery volume and weight. and...

Hydrogen will never work for consumer transportation. We might see a different story for large shipping or airplanes, but it's fundamentally retarded for automobiles. Hydrogen was something to do if EVs couldn't work out. EVs have, and that's that. Hydrogen is expensive, volatile, and very...

good software is a LOT harder than it appears. anybody can pour paint onto canvas. Doesn’t make them a renowned artist. Really, same is true for pretty much every world class expertise. anybody can drive. Not gonna make a career in racing.

It’s not just how much you spend. It’s how your prioritize the function internally. Politically, financially, knowledge chassis development includes the Porsche GT racing division with a decades long history of world class competition. Software includes … contracting to rando auto suppliers...

at least it's not hydrogen ? TL;DR "destroyed a complex half the size of a soccer field" https://www.reuters.com/article/us-autos-hydrogen-southkorea-insight/hydrogen-hurdles-a-deadly-blast-hampers-south-koreas-big-fuel-cell-car-bet-idUSKBN1W936A
