    Battery Cooling

    I wonder what the max battery temp is before the car goes to limp mode? 150 degrees? I wouldn't think it would be a complex problem to solve, but obviously isn't an obvious fix, or they would have obviously fixed by now.

    Battery Cooling

    Why is an ICE radiator able to keep 1,200 exhaust temps in check, but the cooling system on a Tesla is unable to keep a 150 degree battery temp under control for one lap on the track? Batteries get maybe 1/8 as hot as a gasoline engine, what technical barriers are there to keeping battery...

    car and driver P90D 11.1 @ 121 MPH

    Turn off traction control, add drag radials, possibly that will take a tenth or two off.

    Cold Weather Motor/Drivetrain noise on Model S P85D [video]

    Wind does affect inanimate objects by cooling them to ambient temp faster.

    A Model S caught fire while supercharging in Norway (link in Norwegian)

    Watch the video again and notice the white smoke streaming from the small shed to the right. Did the fire originate there or the car first? Tesla Model S caught fire / Her står Teslaen i full fyr - YouTube

    A Model S caught fire while supercharging in Norway (link in Norwegian)

    Why didn't the tires burn, if a battery fire would burn low to high.
