Many Tesla fans and electric-car drivers now know about the Model S P85D, Tesla's all-wheel-drive electric car that's arguably the fastest four-door sedan on the market.

What most of them likely don't know is just what the car's ultimate performance mode, called "Insane," actually feels like.

Now there's a video out from Drag Times that shows how astoundingly, jaw-dropping, amazingly, startlingly, incredibly insane the Insane mode actually is.

NOTE: Video is NSFW, has rude words (delivered in tones of shock, horror, awe, amazement, and joy).

With 1.3 million views in three days, the reactions to Drag Times CEO Brooks Weisblat's demonstration of standing-start acceleration pretty much speak for themselves (above).

You are the one who has been caught in a lie. Musk told the Detroit Auto show that Tesla would not be profitable until 2020_

One of you two is lying. I vote for you.

Lie?

Earnings reports dont lie.

Yep, Elon Musk said very clearly that Tesla was not going to be profitable until 2020, which contradicts your call bub. So who do I believe...... The company's CEO or an old buffoon, who doesn't know what the hell he is talking about.

Yeah...... that's a tough one. /s
