The tesla roadster is unfortunately just not competitive with other internal combustion performance cars if you don't want to give it credit for either (1) being a super innovative EV or (2) being environmentally friendly.
Top Gear (and all the car mags) basically review it as a cool, fun novelty. But if you measure on looks + performance, as car enthuiasts do, it's just fundamentally not competitive in its price bracket.
Suing is obviously a mistake. Hoping Top Gear, Evo, Road & Track will push it is just naive. Tesla listens too much to their own marketing.
btw when i said notable I meant know-it-all... had hand surgery recently and speech-to-text is not 100%
the reason I came on so strong was that (maybe misguidedly) I felt like I really have to sell the idea of spending 10+ hrs on this, or of really being willing to go back to the drawing board if refs are" good but not great" -- there is so much inertia in the way people usually run the process. but i take your point that, in attempting to do so, I may have failed (and in fact come across smugly)...
Thanks for the comments and sorry for the style. I don't think I'm a know it all type, but I'm guessing most notable types don't think they are! Anyway I'm kind of new to blogging so hopefully my writing style will get better over time.
