But… The dealer would have to go to Mexico.

Ah, yes, forgot.

Where did that run come from?

So it traps over 100mph I see

We are all waiting with much anticipation. All I can say is the GT has to compete well with the MY at the strip and on the track, period.

Ideally it would be good to a see a GT vs GTPE time to compare but a 12.8 is slower than a model Y long range .

Ignoring the model Y another food for thought comparison is the i-pace that has the same 124mph top speed (electronically limited) that manages to do the 1/4 in 12.6 with less bhp and a slower 0-60 of 4.5

Did you take delivery of your GTPE and run this time? Any amount of context here would be kind of useful.

I test drove my GTPE and ran that time.

I’m getting nervous about my normal GT…

Unbridled mode, over 90% SoC.

What's to be nervous about? That Pushrod guy guaranteed it'll trap over 110 and run low 12s.

Wow. Thank you for putting the SoC question to rest. How’d it feel right off the line?

 

[Rabidsquirrel22]

So did you notice it throttling power at a specific speed? Or did it just feel slower than anticipated from the launch through to the end?
