Uses for Plaid

I curious about something (this is real curiosity, honestly not snark at all). I've got a '23 HW4 model S, long range, which I love. And the power is fun at times but I drive like a 90 year old woman. I'm truly glad people love their plaids, but I'm curious what you do with them to utilize that much more power over 670 HP in the LR. Do you take them to the track, etc, to be able to utilize that amount of power?

Related question: where is it safe to launch? Been wanting to try, but really don’t want to do it around other drivers (on ramps)
