I play a nice person on twitter.
Just let me know. I've talked our general counsel into picking up an S. He knows that means I get to drive it once in a while

cinergi,
Nice drive and video. See what you meant about the screams. It was fun talking today at the event. Hope you get your S soon. Umm after I get mine of course.:smile:

As I explained to the Tesla employee, the difference between the S and the X is absolutley noticable. The S drive is all from the rear making it feel like a rocket ride. The X was like a flying carpet! So, if you wet your pants with the S just get ready for the X. It will make you cream.

Yeah - I think it was Doug_G - Sorry about the confusion.

Thanks for the confirmation, and the reminder that Tesla is not a typical car company! I shouldn't have doubted either (sorry, TM...).

No extra info about the Model S, but this is GeorgeB telling us about the test drive route

So that's who that was! /waveJust let me know. I've talked our general counsel into picking up an S. He knows that means I get to drive it once in a while
He's gotta get the Performance version. Just gotta.
Awesome video! Love the enthusiasm. Thanks for sharing.
One thing I'm glad I did: after the event I backtracked to the route in my regular car and drove the "bumpy road" again. What a difference...
I got a chance to talk with George for about 10 minutes; what a great guy! Anyway, Model S is here and it's all we dreamed it could be and more! He did drop a little teaser on me though... apparently they're doing some new things with the Falcon wing doors of the Model X that are going to blow our minds.
Yep, that's me driving Elon's black Performance Model S! I had a blast - what a great car!
Now I gotta point out that both the Tesla employee and head TMC moderator doug started screaming as I headed into that big sweeper. What's the matter, never been around a race track before? Truth was, I wasn't pushing the car anywhere near its limit - at most we were at about 6/10ths of the car's capability (that's all I'd do without everyone wearing helmets). I can't wait to try one on a real race track.
lol, my Tesla employee helper actually cheered a little as I did the S section onto the highway. Something about I was the first person to do it properly or something. I wasn't really tracking because I had to slow down for merging into traffic.

Don't be silly. After you successfully go for a thrilling ride it pats you on the back.
