I doubt it has the same track capability as the M5, though. But how many owners honestly take their M5 to the track? It's not much of a track car tbh. Too much of a fatty.

Sorry mate. I've driven the Tesla, I've bought the Tesla, but it cannot accelerate as quickly as my M5.
Also the Tesla is RWD not AWD, and it lacks our trick differential so it struggles to get the power down effectively.
