Hmm, not a big surprise over a quarter mile track; electric motors have loads of torque from rest, borne out by the comment in the article about the Lamborghini's slow start.
The story would be different after a further quarter mile!
Probably after a tankful with the Lamborghini too - leaving the Tesla out of charge and grounded?  :-[

I would agree.  I'm not opening any newpaper links, due to all the embedded ads and shite. But I know a powerful electric car will beat a sluggish supercar over a short distance from a standing start.

Yep....Tesla initially and then anything half-decent will reel it in.
