I watched the event on YouTube and it looked so fake to me.

Especially when the two afterburner's landed perfectly.

I haven't seen anything about this launch until I saw the event on youtube.

I still think it's fake and just part 2 of the apollo series.

Ok , I must have it on a setting where each page starts at 1 and ends at 30.
But the post where I quoted simon varley and said the appolo docos are amazing, should not be above the other post of mine directly below it.

Tesla is screwed anyway. Once the mainstream manufacturers get their electric vehicles to market over the next 1-2 years then they will send them even further down the crap shoot. MB, Audi, Porsche, VW, Ford, GM etc have cars in development now that will be in showrooms quite soon.

Sorry for all the confusion guys. I was scrolling from top to bottom. Last two forums I was on was like that. It all makes sense now. Thanks for helping.

Your presuming it is for no reason. It in fact did have a reason.
