no, he hasn't

2019-06-12 20:07:07 UTC  

hasn't what

2019-06-12 20:07:15 UTC  

been consistent

2019-06-12 20:07:29 UTC  

that's what I'm saying

2019-06-12 20:07:32 UTC  

wait

2019-06-12 20:07:35 UTC  

you said "he" hasn't

2019-06-12 20:07:37 UTC  

the vast majority of things he says at best suffer huge delays

2019-06-12 20:07:38 UTC  

I said the cars have been

2019-06-12 20:07:42 UTC  

yeah, huge delays

2019-06-12 20:07:44 UTC  

that's what I said

2019-06-12 20:07:49 UTC  

at best

2019-06-12 20:07:50 UTC  

I meant performance specs

2019-06-12 20:08:01 UTC  

there's a ton of stuff that he's fallen short of

2019-06-12 20:08:13 UTC  

"not yet achieved"

2019-06-12 20:08:28 UTC  

yeah

2019-06-12 20:08:31 UTC  

I'm not arguing that

2019-06-12 20:08:41 UTC  

but the cars have generally hit the performance numbers afaik

2019-06-12 20:08:44 UTC  

I don't doubt the 0-60 times, I doubt the top speed and range being achievable before 2023

2019-06-12 20:08:51 UTC  

that are 34 completed goals, we cant even finish one fucking airport in berlin

2019-06-12 20:09:08 UTC  

idk about the range

2019-06-12 20:09:12 UTC  

but why not the top speed?

2019-06-12 20:10:00 UTC  

because producing that speed isn't easy for any automotive company, let alone one that treats the car industry like the tech industry

2019-06-12 20:10:48 UTC  

why not, when they have stupid amounts of power at their disposal?

2019-06-12 20:11:07 UTC  

plenty of car companies are able to do so, they just frequently opt to not

2019-06-12 20:11:31 UTC  

instead focusing on track performance where ludicrous top speed doesn't do you as good as low end acceleration and cornering

2019-06-12 20:12:31 UTC  

there are like 4 supercars confirmed to do 250+

2019-06-12 20:12:38 UTC  

you realize that right

2019-06-12 20:12:46 UTC  

4

2019-06-12 20:12:55 UTC  

uh

2019-06-12 20:13:07 UTC  

confirmed by who?

2019-06-12 20:13:11 UTC  

I'm talking stock cars

2019-06-12 20:13:16 UTC  

ah

2019-06-12 20:13:17 UTC  

yeah

2019-06-12 20:13:22 UTC  

when you run into environmental regulations

2019-06-12 20:13:24 UTC  

that happens

2019-06-12 20:13:26 UTC  

by actual speed tests

2019-06-12 20:13:30 UTC  

and also when you try to make it so you can go around a track

2019-06-12 20:13:33 UTC  

that's the thing

2019-06-12 20:13:48 UTC  

that is a ridiculous argument, it has nothing to do with environmental regulations

2019-06-12 20:14:07 UTC  

do you think the veyron was designed for tracks?

2019-06-12 20:14:08 UTC  

if you took the powertrain in a p1 and optimized the cars aero for minimum drag, I'd bet it could hit 250
