That S was out. Looks like the Tesla driver fell asleep at the light, by the time the Tesla driver floored it, the S was just gone. Not to mention it has 6 mph more, either way, 10.8s for any car is nothing to sneeze at.
I take it the S was running pump gas and nothing else for fuel?
Either way at least this car did a proper launch control against the Tesla. They have all these videos on the net with the Tesla doing dig runs with Lamb etc WITH OUT USING THEIR launch control against a AWD Electric car that make all it's tq at 0 RPM'S, saying look the tesla is quicker / faster!! Marketing at its "best".
Tesla is a crazy car non the less, but don't make it appear faster then super cars when in fact it is not faster or quicker once they use their launch control to even the playing field.

Thanks for all the comments the Tesla was out there killing people all day. As for my Turbo i picked it up about a month ago and this was my very first pass on it. The car is a 2010 997.2 Turbo not an S and in this run I was running pump gas, street tires (re11's), on GIACs street tune. It was just about 90 degrees as well so have to get back out there once it cools down and I find this boost leak im chasing down.
1.4-1.5 60 ft and 6.6-6.7 1/8 with street tires (not even a sticky R888 etc) ....and with out launch control.....what the!!! This is not even fair...lol!
Maybe after the cooler weather and fixing the boost leak you should pickup 2-3mph and be in the 130-131 range on pump. I just figured that with the mods mentioned you should be in the 133-134 range on pump.
Your car is definitely hooking that is for sure, especially with the street set up that you have.
