What better fun can be had from a Tesla P85D’s 691 horsepower and a zero to 60 mph time of 3.2 seconds than scaring your friends and family. Looks like a lot of fun to me.

Racing games is where my love for cars started. Always wanting to play more and more realistic games until I was allowed to get behind the wheel. Combine this with my love for technology and that has made me who I am today. I love to see my two passions combining and see what technologies are being used in the latest cars.
