Tesla factory 5k


The answer is no. Elon Musk wasn't at the Tesla factory 5k.

Started getting nauseous near the end, but overcame it by throttling back. Real hot in the factory. 1 mile of it was in the factory, winding up & down what seemed to be the entire assembly line, though the fake test pilot couldn't differentiate different car models or different states of completion. They all looked nearly finished. The robots were quite enormous & organized into discrete work cells, separate from areas with manual assembly. They had stopped production, but some people were walking around with parts, not happy to be working on Sunday.

A lot of people walked the course, making a factory tour out of it. The fake test pilot sped through, as usual. Just can't slow down in a 5k. The magic would have been if the robots were left on, revealing production techniques. Surprised fake test pilots could sustain such a high speed for so long. Threw down an average speed of 7m29s/mile.
