Only reason why you dont see them in nordschleife, is because people buy tesla for daily commuting. Just because its not driven on a track, doesnt mean its a bad car. Comments like yours give bmw drivers bad name

Comments like yours give bmw drivers an uneducated name.
There is a video of a professional racing driver giving the p85 (non d) a go, and the batteries or power circuit is (suggested to be) overloaded on the nordschleife as power dropped dramatically and it is overtaken by almost everybody.
Do some research before you make yourself ridiculous.
Also you see all kinds of cars, busses, vans etc on the nordschleife, but I think you've never been there...

You have any video footage of the model S on calabogie or another track to see the stamina? (so no drag strip)
the roadster is very light, so that puts less strain on the batteries I imagine, which is supposedly the problem with the model S according to that team that ran the S on the nordschleife (or maybe it has a different kind/type of battery)
Toyota made an electric race car a few years back that lapped the nordschleife pretty fast, but that was (obviously) also very lightweight build.
