Is this relevant to Piedmont crash?

"Beast mode is a performance setting on the Tesla Cybertruck that allows for quicker acceleration and handling:

Acceleration
The Cybertruck Beast can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 2.6 seconds. It can also clear a quarter-mile in 11 seconds at 119 miles per hour.

Handling
The Cybertruck Beast has steer-by-wire and rear steering, which gives it the handling of a sports car and a better turning radius than most sedans.

Suspension
The Cybertruck Beast has a lower ride height and stiffer handling. When Beast mode is selected, the front suspension lowers and the infotainment screen changes to a black and white triangular tunnel."

Did he suddenly get up to 60?

Anyways, I had to inquire with my assistant:


A fast quarter-mile time for a vehicle is generally under 10 seconds, especially for performance cars or drag racing vehicles.

- **Top-tier drag racing cars** (like Top Fuel Dragsters) can complete the quarter mile in under 4 seconds, reaching speeds of over 330 mph.

- **Supercars** such as the Bugatti Chiron or Tesla Model S Plaid typically achieve times in the 8-9 second range.

- **Sports cars** like the Chevrolet Corvette or Porsche 911 Turbo S can achieve times around 10-12 seconds.

- **Standard consumer cars** often fall in the 15-17 second range, depending on engine power and weight.

Total inconsequential point. 4.1 or 4.2% unemployment means the economy is doing very well. Inflation down to 2.6%. layoffs down to 1.6 million in October. Trade deficit down $10 billion in October. Trump getting a great economy.
