Anonymous, 29 Feb 2024Is sub-1s 0-60 mph even possible? Maybe onboard the falcon rocket?Lol. Falcon 9 0-60 is about 25 seconds.
But the roadster will be SLIGHTLY lighter than a loaded F9 rocket

Even a Falcon rocket can't do 0 to 60 in under a second. Even if we ignore the first five seconds or so after ignition and start measuring after movement starts doubt a rocket is over 20 mph first second. Maybe moves 10 feet in first second? Give it time sure it is very fast. Just not quick.

I suppose the rocket thruster will be used to suck air from the floor and blow it backwards to create a constant downforce even at stand still. this is currently used in McMurtry EV sports car. Initially, Chapparral 2J used this tech back in 1970s before getting banned by FIA.
of course, the acceleration ratings does not make a good sports car. it has to handle curves with agility by lightweight curb weight like 1500-1600kg max which is the biggest challenge for an EV. it also has to handle high speeds without overheating batteries or brakes. we already saw 1900hp Rimac Nevera being destroyed by only 500hp Porsche gt3 rs on track.
