    He ran it against his 2WD RC Tundra (SC’d, geared, tuned, lowered, slicks)
    Edit: It’ll be up for sale soon. (Tundra) with the drag strip closing, he really has no need for it

    SC and slicks and barely into the 13s :pout:

    Gears can be counter productive w/the SC, but still... you'd think he'd be running high 12s or at least VERY low 13s :notsure:

    I know that his son (who was driving the Tundra) was frustrated and putting out the worst times he’s had in that truck. We are above elevation so take a second or two off what would be sea level

    it ain't.

    it's ponderous.

    it's like there is a big as joke lingering in the air.

    Not bad, but it still doesn't have the Tesla reliability record.

    Does the fork make people fat or is it the person?

    False - just like the disclaimer reads. It’s an electronic and is bound to make an error. There are also impact braking that can prevent it from running into something if enabled.
    Link me to the case so I can see

    The sheriff’s office confirmed drivers impairment” lol. It’s not going to take full place of a human. I am also willing to bet he didn’t have obstacle awareness on to prevent him from flooring it if something is in front of him.

    It's the food that goes on the fork; oh wait, that was probably rhetorical....

    Well anyhow, given my response, I'm thinking it's the electricity's fault and therefore we should blame the power company :thumbsup:

    I don’t think any AI system will be 100%. Have there tons of improvements? Yep. Many videos showing the updates. Would I ever trust it (any AI) to drive for me completely? No, not entirely and not at night especially. On the flip side, there has been numerous drivers on the news, passed out asleep and the car is driving them. They make it so you have to physically touch the wheel every now and then (or change the volume, adjust temp etc) or the car will put its hazard lights on and safely pull itself over. Of course there are workarounds u can use (weights made for the wheel) to override it, but again, that falls on the driver
