Shouldn't you compare the M3P against the regular Dark horse? Seems at $90k the comparison should go to Model S Plaid.

Crazy that at a stop light race in the real world, the Model 3 Performance is going to out run a 800+ hp Mustang every time.

Why don’t you run a race with two model 3 Performances side by side, one in Track mode and the other in Insane mode and put this issue to bed.

It's pretty crazy that the Mustang is actually heavier than the Tesla!

4,122 LBS is just ridiculous for a Mustang, but the brakes on that thing are incredible. In both races, it caught up in the braking zone despite weighing more and coming in at a higher speed.

American Muscle vs American Electrons! Were you surprised how this face-off between Gas and EV power would turn out? Let us know in the comments!
