This seems like a slighty agressive schedule to me:

I used to have a lotus 7 style kit car with a tuned up V8 in it kicking out about 700bhp/ton with side pipes and not a lot of silencer.... best fun was always at traffic lights with some bell end boy racer revving the brussels off his souped up whatever, slipping the clutch, inching forward... fun to match him, barking and rumbling... and then pulling sedately away while he went screaming off in a cloud of rubber and smoke and flying con rods... always amused me...

Yup. My favourite moment was always turning sedately and slowly left (UK here) as they squealed off and away.

Morning Governor o7

Big fan of my Cobra - Kai and the Dolphin - Flipper (not of the sound not the sound of the Dolphin tho - like millions of dolphins suddenly crying out and....wheezing). Been using the Cobra for combat and mission running faction rep work and the dolphin for mining, station rescues, and space box trucking. At some point I'm gonna get out of the small ships but I can do most things in game I want across combat, trading, and exploring. Current goal is to wrap up the last of Imperial rank head back to Shin Dez and go on a bit of a shopping spree.

In garden news first batch of tomatoes are jarred up after the storm delay. Hoping the cucumber plants have enough cukes by this weekend for some pickles.

And I have to say I do like the look of the cybertruck in a halo meets battlezone kinda way.

I've long thought that they need a low speed sound when moving, and especially when starting off. For a pedestrian they are an almost completely silent predator, and with some of the driver-awareness I've seen in car-parks, lethally-so.

they do.

the tesla lets you customize theirs. and most sound like a space ship ...because that's the sound they're designed to make specifically for that purpose...not due to any kind of mechanical or electrical consequence.

only the 1st gen or diy's are silent at slow speeds.

I'll have a Moloko Plus, please...
And you have a Cobra Kai... I see what you did there. :D

At the minute I think the battery tech is almost but not quite there for a lot of makers. GM are recalling all EV models because of battery issues, and makers like Tesla have had problems with fires as well.

I'd be interested in knowing how battery tech deals with crashes these days :D

solid state batteries solve the fire issue. There are a couple chemistries that are coming to market soon that are supposed to be fairly revolutionary. They're supposed to be commercially available in EV cars in 2-3 years. well before i plan on purchasing another car.
