Tesla D owns a Hellcat in the 1/4 mile...

But ask the Tesla to run for an hour on a circuit .... it might make 15 minutes at WoT but not a lot longer I suspect. Power by sparks

Power by sparks has a bit of an endurance problem with energy density as battery-storage capacity is still a problem.

Ask the hell cat to take the first turn on a circuit

I got ride in a hellcat on Saturday... And honestly it didn't feel that fast.... Handling was a joke

Really?

On the flip side, my doctor friend has a Tesla, Ive driven it and it is a BADASS. To further hijack this, he ordered a C7 Zo6, has a 2014 GT3, 2014 458, 2014 911 Turbo S, GTR and Aston Martin. Obviously I went into the wrong field.

You are joking right? The Z can't even do 20 minutes straight without hitting fuel starve. The electric cars do about 1.5-2 miles per kwh under track condition, you are looking at 40 miles in a P85. That's still more than enough for one session at the track. The car can do 0-60 in 3 sec with more traction and acceleration than you can use safely, how is that not fun?
