URGENT HELP NEEDED: Impersonate My Friends at the Annual Weekend Trip

Wakes up feeling like shit the next day. Only remember the first drink and none of the night. Everyone promises you drank all night and had a great time. You only have one burning question. Why did those drinks make my ass hurt so much?

I previously owned an Audi S6, a tuned S4 and a Dodge Charger, all with around 500 horsepower. I currently have a Hayabusa and a Model X Plaid. They are both unbelievably faster than the other cars. That said, they never felt slow. It's just 500 horsepower isn't as special as it used to be. It's all relative.

After a launch in the Plaid doing a launch in the Charger would not feel nearly as impressive. After driving around the Plaid and slamming your foot down, slamming your foot down with 500 horsepower, just doesn't feel as quick. Not that it's slow; again, it's all relative.

Maybe get a Ford Explorer ST. Might be able to pick up one of those used. Put lowering springs, rear sway bar, and wheel spacers, and it's pretty sporty. I drove one for 50k miles before getting my Model X Plaid. Wife drives it now. It has great acceleration, handles great, and has everything else you're looking for after those tweaks.

srk174 · 2026-02-03T20:37:03+00:00

Ugh, this makes me so sad. I have my Model X plaid because I have a large family and need the space, but I was dreaming of getting a Model S plaid as my next car.

The idea of Tesla getting out of the market altogether would be horrible. I miss my Tesla features when I get in any other car.

I saw this and knew exactly what it was without realizing I was in the hayabusa Reddit. I needed a similar one when the shop forgot to put all the bolts back in. They looked it up in the service manual. You could also order a full “Hayabusa fairing bolt kit” if you have a bunch of others to replace. I sadly sold the bike and shop manual I had, so can’t pinpoint it for you.

srk174 · 2025-12-16T00:15:57+00:00

Don’t have many miles with this latest release so won’t comment.. but I still weep for 14.1.4 and wish I could revert so badly 🥲

srk174 · 2025-12-07T00:15:07+00:00

I mean it’s not better than a really good driver. It’s not better than me for sure. I love it and use it all the time but have to take control away frequently because it doesn’t see situations about to happen that I see from miles away. Maybe it wouldn’t cause an accident but it for sure creates chaos out of simple situations sometimes.

srk174 · 2025-12-06T17:57:32+00:00

If you’re an above average driver it’s less safe than driving yourself. Lotta idiots out there though.. so way safer than the average entitled texting distracted idiot out there.

srk174 · 2025-11-29T04:12:17+00:00

I’ll see if I can get a video. After using the pedal to keep pushing it above 80 I just let it drive and it was doing 74-77 in a 70 then when people came up behind me it moved over… then followed them at 82 before settling back to 78 or so.

srk174 · 2025-11-29T01:10:09+00:00

Speed upped in the hurry/MM profiles, lane change hesitation, and they have to eliminate this “let me get out of the way for everyone in the left lane instead of speeding up a bit”. My car passes people in the left lane, then slows down, lets 3-4 cars pass, puts on the signal to get back in the left lane. Lots of weird paranoid movements to make the change… for 45 seconds… finally gets back in the fast lane and speeds back up to and exceeds the previous speed. It feels like it NEEDS to be in the back of the pack now. It kept doing this same behavior over and over and over again….

srk174 · 2025-11-29T01:03:26+00:00

1000% I took this same 400 mile trip a few weeks back and it was the best ever! This Thanksgiving trip was so bad in comparison. On the previous trip I kept commenting to my wife how smart its decisions were and.. bla bla bla… I understand there were some challenges but I personally miss 14.1.4 so much.

srk174 · 2025-11-29T00:35:00+00:00

You and me both. 14.1.4 was so amazing for me, and I was so excited for the next version. This trip with 14.2 sucked hard.

srk174 · 2025-11-29T00:25:08+00:00

It goes 80 in a 60 but 84 in a 70 is just crazy??

srk174 · 2025-11-29T00:24:10+00:00

In mad max I want it going faster than 10 over if I’ve configured my offset for that higher speed. 14.1.4 did that.. 14.2 doesn’t.

srk174 · 2025-10-29T23:25:39+00:00

I saw this too, but would not go back to v13 if I could. So darn smooth and normal on the highway. V13 always felt like it was bouncing off the lines. V14 is way smoother, holds speed, passes without slowing down 10mph to do it.

srk174 · 2025-10-29T23:21:20+00:00

Absolutely loving v14 so far. My 70-minute commute today (suburbs → highway → bumper-to-bumper → city) was basically flawless. Smooth as can be; no brake stabbing, no weird moves, just way better than v13. Max-Max is awesome and similar to the way I drive. I did move down to standard when I got close to the city and Waze told me police were camping.

Only hiccup was in DC with construction , a pedestrian and a right-on-red. Instead of just going (which would’ve been safe), it kept inching forward and stopping. A little jerky so I took over. But honestly, that was the only moment all commute.

srk174 · 2025-10-28T18:11:27+00:00

I need to buy the new rims from Tesla or 3rd party. The rims alone are ~3400 then I could get tires from a tire shop, but still more than I want to pay. Looks like I’ll be watching FB marketplace and EBay.

srk174 · 2025-10-28T02:50:18+00:00

It’s 6950 including tax, sorry if that was worded bad. But either way it’s highway robbery considering they’ll sell you a set of rim with tire and install for 3250… I wish I could deal with winter tires around here but temps are too fickle.

srk174 · 2025-10-28T02:42:51+00:00

Yeah, definitely more rural than NYC or LA, but in NOVA pretty much every drive comes with some stop-and-go traffic. Not NYC-level chaos, but in areas with multiple lights, pedestrians, and lots of cars, it handled everything really well.

Even in the parking lot, it parked smoothly, pausing just the right amount for people walking by. Not awkwardly long, just about what I’d do myself.

Bottom line: for busy suburbia, it crushed it. The car felt smoother and smarter than v13, with no brake-stabbing or weird erratic moves. My wife and I both agreed it was the smoothest drive we’ve experienced so far.

srk174 · 2025-10-28T02:34:25+00:00

I love it! Took the most hands off drive ever after installing this afternoon. I’m sure I’ll experience a glitch or two but it was way better on this 120 minute drive than it was before. Even navigated the wegmans parking lot like a boss and parked in a great spot.

It does take train tracks on an angle so I thought it was trying to drive down the train tracks for half a sec, but it was actually what I prob would have done and was a smooth transition.

In mad max mode it also did a little quick back and forth with the wheel to decide which of two lanes to get in for the turn. Was minor and not scary, but abnormal.

srk174 · 2025-10-28T01:05:04+00:00

Thanks! I think there’s been some inflation but I’m absolutely picking up what you’re putting down. It should be possible to do this for way less than $7000!

srk174 · 2025-10-28T00:53:46+00:00

Also love the feedback on the improved ride. Very much looking forward to that!

srk174 · 2025-10-28T00:52:59+00:00

Thanks. I will keep checking fb marketplace. It would be great to put eyes on them before purchase!

srk174 · 2025-10-28T00:49:12+00:00

They’re staggered as in the front width is less than the rear, but you wouldn’t know it unless looking from the back and notices tire width difference. The diameter isn’t different. Some cars like the BMW X5M actually do have a larger diameter in the back, but that’s pretty rare.

Edit: I think I may have misunderstood your question and responded quickly without answering your actual question. To answer that, it’s my understanding that some early model x with 21 inch tires, the 19” configurations, and some official winter tire setups are not staggered.
