I'm having a surprisingly difficult time convincing my wife to put our names into the hat.

Well 8 times is quite a commitment.

I don't know which is more ludicrous - Musk's claims of a 9 second 1100 hp car, or the fact that CNN felt it was necessary to explain what "going plaid" means.
Elon Musk promises $25,000 Tesla and says Model S 'Plaid' is coming soon - CNN

"Ludicrous". I see what you did there
And sub-9 seconds is ambitious, but they are already capable of 10.8 seconds bone stock with the P100D dual motor version, so a third motor should easily push it under the 10 second barrier. Only issue is that pretty much every track requires a legit full cage for anything sub-10 second.

"Raising the truss using an 800 year old technique only took 2 weeks. Shortly thereafter, a crane operator and a crew of mexicans placed the remaining 24 trusses in less than 2 hours."

Only for the second and subsequent runs.

Well good thing we live in NC!

Only for the second and subsequent runs.

That was exactly our experience last year on the HRPT.

Helmet and fire suit required if fast than x.xx or greater than xxx mph.

Never got to run twice.

California governor signs executive order to ban gas-powered cars and trucks

 

[jeepinmatt]

Only for the second and subsequent runs.

I agree completely with your sentiment, but a true 9 second production car is gonna be well known in those circles. Maybe with a debadged version you could get a run in. But then what? "Ok guys, swap the cage in so we can run again!"

It's worse than that. Diablo Canyon provides power to 3MM people, and they're trying to shut it down. There's no plan to replace it.

 

[Blkvoodoo]

They can’t even power what they do have without rolling blackouts

But.... goals.
