- fj12ryderExplorer IIIMaybe we could get back to RV related posts instead of NHRA related posts. How the semi pulls, and when/if the semi pulls is more relevant to this thread. :) Although relevancy seems varied at best. :)
I did read somewhere that the Cybertruck is supposed to start production end of 2023. Seems like it's always going to happen "next year". - Pbutler97Explorer

Odds should be good for the naysayers specially with Elon's lost credibility (and current distraction as Chief Tweet and Putin and Xi messenger, lol).
Triggered are we? LOL.
Lost credibility? Just read he's sheet canning half of the Twitter workforce. Thats awesome. - Yosemite_Sam1ExplorerDecember is just around the corner.

NHRA
How they get around the NHRA equipment requirements? Or are most of these Teslas cut open and roll cages installed? (Behind the tinted windows of course)
Because surely they're fast enough to be in the cage categories. - 8_1_VanExplorer
The long-awaited Tesla Semi was recently spotted in Silver Springs, not far from the Tesla Gigafactory in Nevada.
This time, the Semi - with a trailer attached - was seen stopping at a roundabout and then accelerating effortlessly - quickly, smoothly and silently, which looks a bit unrealistic, especially when compared to ordinary diesel trucks.
Let's recall that the Tesla Semi is promised to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (96.5 km/h) in 20 seconds (when fully loaded).
However, there is no info on whether the trailer shown in the video, shared by Zanegler @HinrichsZane, was full or empty.
link - Yosemite_Sam1ExplorerSorry, no photo. I won't pull my camera phone on that scary zig zag.
Anyway, saw a Tesla semi obviously pulling a cargo up at the I-80 Sparks-Reno-Truckee corridor.
Thinking out loud, if this is still in test, this is the best way to do it with the brutal Donner Summit climb and the chilly Tahoe weather.
I also noticed some a large graffiti already on the sides.

Wow, interesting article. I think most if not all manufactures are going to go to "hands at the ready" way of self driving.

I do agree that self driving is some time in the future.
So were telephones once upon a time.
Self driving may work in good weather,in snow probably not too well.
Stil its nice to see what crazy tech people come up with.
