  1. #TrackDay at #LagunaSeca today - first time here with slick tires (Toyo RR) so I’m learning to push harder by about 2s in each session. Morning best was 1:46.1 - lots of fun in the #Lotus #Elise that I first drove here in 2002.

  2. #JohnNaughton asks, in The #Guardian, if #Tesla is doing to the car industry what #Apple did to #Nokia. There are several errors in the article (the Tesla Roadster was based on a #Lotus #Elise, not Elite, and the #Toyota #bZ4x is *not* cheaper than a Tesla. Which is precisely the problem traditional car manufacturers are facing. They can’t build #EVs cheap enough. Even worse, some (like #Ford and @VWGroup) are actually cutting back investment!
