Larry EvansGuestTom GanHostJoy GanHostNow, speaking of Tesla, we should probably move on and discuss, obviously, what's transpired this week with the Tesla Roadster, which finally showed itself on the world stage last week.
So, yeah, obviously, if you haven't seen this, you've obviously been living under a rock.
hanging on to the uh the side of the uh the loop the loop like uh what are those matchbox cars called yeah yeah um there's an incredible amount of downforce on this car or upforce whatever you want to call it to keep a two-ton vehicle upright like this upside down so it's pretty incredible engineering um so yeah uh and obviously some of you might have seen also the kickflip maneuver um see if i can find that uh here we go so sorry Let's share this tab.
At first, obviously, when I saw this, I thought, surely this is AI, but no, I think there were multiple witnesses seeing this roadster do the flip and land pretty nicely using the cold compressor thrusters and explicitly on the ground.
Just as a mum, I feel like it needs to have that little disclaimer down the bottom, filmed under controlled conditions by professionals, please do not try this at home.
If you look at the reserve your Roadster page, we don't get this, Larry, obviously in Australia, this is US only.
But it looks like you can reserve a road legal Roadster for five grand and in 10 days pay another 45 US thousand dollars.
