For 10 years I raced V8s across 19 road courses across AZ, NV, and CA. I owned a Lexus ISF, Camaro ZL1, and a Camaro ZL11LE. I have won Time Attack competitions against advanced drivers at Laguna Seca, Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Chuckwalla Valley Raceway ( 2 back to back 1st place wins ), and AutoClub Speedway. I was about as deep into it as one could get and still have a full time job. Never thought I’d get rid of my Camaro ZL11LE. I used to tell people, “ bury me in this thing “……… and then one day I was bored and curious and took one test drive. Just one. No track event. No time attack. Just one drive and I was SOLD ! I could not believe the performance, the tech, and the refinement. It made every compromise I made with my Camaro seem insane. I haven’t tracked my car in 2 years and was doing 74 miles a day in a race car.

The Tesla has blown my
mind. It has literally reset what I expect in a car. I used to think I was so knowledgeable about cars until I test drove a Tesla. I then realized I was so specialized in a very niche section of the auto enthusiast realm and had missed the info on all of the new tech.

I had no idea cars drove themselves. I had no idea they were this fast. I’ve seen videos but I have never felt anything accelerate like these cars do. ( mind you I have daily driven a 650 hp Camaro ZL1 / ZL11LE since 2017. I used to huge power )

Between the power, tech, and lack of maintenance as well as the rising cost to track a car I figured that this was the best overall vehicle by far.

So glad to be a part of the community and to have finally discovered modern driving. It’s not a ZL11LE but I don’t need to win Time Attack competitions anymore.

I’m in love with this car !

I even started a YouTube Channel called Supercharged to Supercharger to discuss the transition.

Hey! I think many people are having this dash rattle issue. It’s coming from the dash trim piece making slight contact with the AC vent below it. Very easy fix. I’m scheduled to get mine done Tuesday. Hope this helps. Kind of frustrating that I had to find it and tell the service advisor. I’m new to Tesla and service quality is pretty bad. Luckily these things don’t need service every 5000 miles.

Really happy with the way this came out. I’ve never had a car with the windshield tinted but living in the desert and this car having the largest windshield Ive ever seen in a car, it just made sense.

The car is amazing. Mind blowing. Was parking in a Costco lot and it backed in to park and curbed my wheel in front of half a dozen people who cringed. Confidence killing and embarrassing to say the least. Just picked the car 4 days an ago and now there’s damage. I scheduled a wheel repair appointment for a week out. Looks like a $125 repair but still annoying nonetheless.
