Yep, and why every supercar's 0-60 time is limited to about ~2.6s these days. Also why tesla is claiming to be able to achieve <2.6s only with the cold gas thruster "SpaceX" package, they're no longer solely relying on the tire traction.

No, tesla s with ludicrous mode is doing 0-60 in 2.28 today. The new roadster is aiming for 1.9 and probably less with the SpaceX package.

The exact number wasn't really the point + elon has a history of releasing high performance spec's before the actual technology is ready. Maybe they have special tires in the works, but the rubber that's on the market today can't do that
