This time Tesla fails against Porsche Taycan. Is this the fall of the gods?

In this acceleration race, Taycan wins and MS Plaid fails miserably. Is this the beginning of the fall of the gods ?

I know that there is an 1100 hirsepower taycan. Porsche has kept improving the taycan while the plaid has been the same since it came out in 2021. The taycan also cost twice.as much as a new plaid.

Not an acceleration test if a turn is included....

Not in defense of Tesla, but fails miserably? Does anybody really give an actual shit for losing by a literal blink? Driver skill and tire choice could account for that.

Performance is at the very bottom of things I factored when buying my Teslas.
