I ran as fast as I could and started screaming at the idiot driver.
Kudos to whatever fucboi it was, he found me in the crowd later and apologized but I was pissed | I remember this meet.

what even is social distancing... and apparently they like to play in traffic lol.

Last week I was at a local Monday meet in Victoria and lots of high school kids with no distancing at all. Multiple rough housing / play fighting incidents. Cops were called.

If they’re in the same cohort at school they don’t even need masks in their classrooms so I could see school aged kids doing this.. again, if they’re in the same cohort.

*granted I'm the kind of person that has zero interest in straight line speed in a car. No matter what I've been in I've never found it appealing. | Elon Musk has already said that the run at Laguna Seca is not final. They are aiming for some more fine-tuning. The production model of the Model S Plaid is supposed to shave another 3sec off that time... beating every production car to ever run at Laguna Seca.
Not only it's a 4-door sedan. It's a full car with all the seats, rings and bells.
The only thing gas-powered cars still have advantage is on final speed, where 400km/hr has been broken by many cars. But just wait for the Tesla Roadster, which is going to achieve that feat too. Not to mention a theoretical 0-60 closer to 1sec than 2 with its crazy SpaceX package... as the compressed air would overcome physical limit of tire friction.

Musk admitted it used a non-production 3-motor powerplant when the production version is only available with up to 2 motors and no one has been able to verify whether or not the rest of the vehicle was to production specifications.
The McLaren Senna beats it handily as do a number of supercars and high-end sports cars. The 4-door Jaguar Project 8 also beats it (with an official time, albeit not with a production version)
