Interesting. It sounds as if hd tried to upgrade the brakes, but missed a crucial modification. What kind of brake fluid should he have used? It may be a provocative question, but does it make sense for Tesla to build a car that can reach 170+mph, but not fit it with racing-class brakes at the factory? Are the stock brakes adequate for that kind of speed on the road? Do ICE muscle car manufacturers such as Lambourghini, Aston-Martin, McLaren, and Ferrari also fit street-performance brakes to their 190mph beasts?
