So those times that I drive like a teenager are actually good! That is good to know.
Would be interested in @MickeyAO thoughts!

I’ll wait for the TLDR.

This say's to me, more holeshots are in my future .....

For example, short, sharp accelerations in EVs actually slow down battery degradation. That flips the script on what researchers – including this study’s own team – had assumed for years: that acceleration spikes were a battery’s worst enemy.

Just stop reading here lol

Rocket launches for the win. Beware passengers!
