It's amazing how much difference there is between a full on race build and a mass produced street car :)
And we're back! Car was good, truck was good, everybody wins!
For the EV nerds: Here's our trip data from the tow. We started with 90% battery.
Did ya mean to post your phone number in that picture?
In reply to GPz11 (Forum Supporter) :
I think that's the SiriusXM activation number.
Tagged...you're it
Another tradition: Post-track day data review. Andy suggested we go back to the track tomorrow and improve. He was joking... mostly.
Looks like Wide Open throttle needs to be increased
FWIW
How awesome is the frunk on that Lightning?
In reply to OHSCrifle :
The frunk is tied with "doesn't keep asking me to pour $100 into the tank" as my favorite feature.

The ac ranks right up there. "Arctic Wind" is an apt description. Tom is convinced its residential ac.
PS: I need to figure up the charging bill for you...
In reply to Andy Hollis :
The average residential electricity rate in Austin, TX is 12 ¢/kWh. I charged 51.3 kWh after the trip to the track, so that was a $6.16 adventure. But I bought dinner so I think we're square. 
The truck's first charge at your house was 55.02 kWh, which totals up to $6.60.
Total amount of electricity stolen from Andy Hollis: $12.76
I should post a photo of last night's dinner spot:
How hasn't this been posted yet?
What is a Mexican Coke?
Asking for a fiend who does not travel much

Okay sorry but the name of this place is giving me anxiety.
Does it rhyme with "Sourdough," like the bread? Or is it a clever spelling of the name "Gordo's" like the toroid-shaped homunculus is actually named Gordon but this is what his friends call him?
In reply to RacingComputers :
Generally "Mexican Coke" or any "Mexican" soda is made with actual cane sugar, not the high fructose corn syrup that is in almost EVERY food product we have in the US.
In reply to Tom Suddard :
I wasn't sure that I could justify a $7 donut but now I am rethinking that position :)
In reply to JG Pasterjak :
I was thinking since it's a food truck, you'd be waiting for Gourdough....

Fun fact: They sell Mexican Coke at Costco.

Ack, the pun! I'm betting the name is a combination of gordo = fat en Espanol (tag line is "Big. Fat. Donuts.") with a MilSpeak-style abbreviation of Gourmet Doughnut

Aren't Mexicokes everywhere? Not as common as the plastic bottles and easy to find in TX, but I assumed they were distributed nationwide when I found them in a corner store in Brooklyn.

Probably but I go straight to Jarritos soda cuz Lime and Pineapple are the bomb.
In reply to j_tso :
Around my part of the north east the only time you find cane sugar Coke is around passover, look for the kosher mark. Otherwise suck corn.
It's pronounced "Gordo's" and yes, they were delicious!
