while we are waiting the last hours...
... it's a hard time- the last days without "S"... there is a black hole around teslas newsstream and it's getting kind of boring, while at the same time it's get hot and we all get very nervous.
Maybe we can bring in some fun in the meantime and post cool-Tesla-Videos-which-are-new-to-the-community..
I'll start with this... ok, it's a roadster BUT against a Lambo...
please fix me with your thrilling videos here:

The author of that video, btw, is tailing (and planning to pass) a Citroen EV that started a round-the-world EV tour a couple of months earlier. He's doing it on his own dime, mostly, and would appreciate contributions, or even sponsorships! Started in Germany, has crossed the US, landed in Seoul on the way to China, now in Tinjian, China.
Wonder when the "pass" will occur ...

That was indeed the official start, apparently. The other stuff on his FB and Twitter pages were preparatory.
It now seems the 14-day lag between his arrival in China and the start of his "driving permit" period is going to defeat his "round the world in 80 days" schedule. I suppose, unlike David Niven, he lost a day at the Date Line, too.
But I'm not sure where the Citroen team is right now. Since it had a 90+ day head start, it's travelling at less than ½ his speed, I assume.

and now it's about 1/22 of all that!

Besides, the count-down should be the same for all time zones. If I see different remaining times depending on my local computer's time or time zone setting, something is obviously broken.
