Tesla Roadster Road Test - The Car Connection

The Car Connection have published a "test driven" review of the Tesla Roadster. 'Occasionally on full stomp from a stop, the traction control light would flicker. But as we headed west of Palo Alto, up Sand Hill Roads twisties and switchbacks, the wet and TC allowed me to explore what the car felt like when it began to move around. To do that on a dry day, I'd have to be entering and executing those tight, blind bends a LOT faster - somehow not wise in someone else's $129,000 roadster. (Go ahead, say it. Wimpy, wimpy, wimpy.) What the blast up and down the hill did uncover was an incredibly balanced car. On occasion, while entering or accelerating through a corner, the traction control light would catch my eye just as Id feel a hint of squirm from the front end (never from the rear).'
