    Tesla Roadster may offer SpaceX package with actual rockets
    https://www.engadget.com/2018/06/09/tesla-roadster-spacex-package/
    Yes, you read that correctly. Elon Musk has followed up on remarks from Tesla's annual shareholder meeting (not to mention more cryptic hints in November) with a statement that the new Roadster's previously mentioned "SpaceX option package" will include 10 small rocket thrusters strung around the car. Reportedly, the kit would "dramatically improve" acceleration, braking, cornering and everything in between. It sounds ridiculous, but this isn't the most outlandish thing Musk has talked about in recent months. We wouldn't absolutely count on it, but we wouldn't bet against it, either.

            Elon does a great media troll.

                Remember, SOMEBODY said the new Roadster isn't putting enough rubber on the road for the projected performance numbers WAAAY back when it was announced. Where Elon comes from they don't NEED roads.
