How global rallycross supercars hit 60 mph in 1.9 seconds

Regulations limit them to 2 liter engines and 45 millimeter turbocharger restrictor plates, which ultimately are the two factors limiting power. The engines produce about 600 horsepower, and over 650 lb-ft of torque, rocketing these machines from 0-60 in as fast as 1.9 seconds. 1.9 seconds! If we do the math, 60 mph is equivalent to 88 ft per second. 88/1.9 = 46.3 ft/sec squared, or if we divided by 32.2, it means the cars accelerate at over 1.4 longitudinal g’s!! That’s faster than any production vehicle, regardless of how much it costs. So how do they achieve such mind blowing acceleration? First and foremost, you’ll need all wheel drive and an absurd power to weight ratio. With a minimum weight of 2921 pounds including the driver and all fluids, the vehicles are carrying less than 5 pounds of weight for every horsepower the engine produces. All wheel drive is obviously critical for maximizing acceleration, but it’s also important that the engine torque finds its way to the wheels with the most traction. To do this, plate and ramp style mechanical limited slip differentials are used front and back. A shallow ramp angle in an LSD will lock up more easily under throttle. With the differential locked up, torque goes wherever it finds grip. A steep ramp angle will provide little lock-up, or if it’s as steep as 90 degrees, no lockup.

NHTSA investigated 2.6M Teslas for 15 months and found the 'embarrassing' truth about self-parking

NHTSA spent 15 months investigating Tesla's Actually Smart Summon feature across 2.6 million vehicles after 159 reported parking incidents. The result? Zero injuries. Zero fatalities. Zero recalls. The federal government's top auto safety agency closed the probe on April 3, 2026, accepting six over-the-air software updates as sufficient. As Road and Track put it, the feature "turned out to be more embarrassing than dangerous in the end." But that regulatory stamp carries consequences nobody's talking about yet, and they reach far beyond Tesla owners.
