Marek Lubieniecki@m_lubieniecki· Oct 16, 2026Since my Tesla Roadster sim blew up a little, here's a proper update with the newer specs from the Top Gear interview (RWD, ~1.7 t, ~1 MW, 200 L tank, tyres alone ~1.26 g).
The big question is what Musk's "2 g" means:
🔵 2 g of fan suction: 1:30.8, 1.8 s faster than Verstappen's

@elonmusk · Oct 16, 2026
Even without rocket thrusters, Roadster will crush the best Formula 1 track times, because we are using suction and active control surfaces, both of which are banned by F1

I gave a Roadster the Tokyo Night treatment and now I can’t pick a wallpaper.
Electric blue. Violet reflections. An entirely unreasonable amount of time staring at my desktop.
Tokyo Roadster for Omarchy. Four of the eight below.
Good luck choosing ✌️

Replying to @zerohedge
For sure in 2027, but if China ramps LP5 & LP6 as fast as they’ve ramped other manufactured products, then 2028 will be a different story.
HBM is a tougher hill to climb, however.

My favorite Grok Bot use case so far:
I wake up to hundreds of comments. I try to answer everyone, but some always slip through. Now Grok Bot sends me links to every comment I haven't answered, and I reply to each one myself. No automated replies, just no one left behind 💛

It’s no secret that Grok @Bot is my favorite 24/7 AI agent right now.
I’m partnering with @SpaceXSI to give out codes for one month FREE of the Super tier ($100) of their new X Subscription.
It combines X, Grok, Grok Bot, and Cursor into one subscription and is imo a no brainer.
For a chance to get a free code, just reply to this post with how you’d use these tools together. What would you build, automate, or experiment with?
I’ll pick the best responses and send you a code via DM in 24 hours.
Note that the code is for 1 month free and available to new paid subscribers only.
