Electric cars may feel smooth and futuristic, but they hide a costly problem many owners discover too late. The combination of heavy batteries, instant torque, and aggressive regenerative braking constantly stresses the tires in ways traditional cars never do. Even when cruising on the highway, EV tires are rarely just “free rolling” like those on gasoline vehicles. Over time, that constant load can wear them out far faster than most drivers expect. For many EV owners, the result is a surprising reality - replacing tires far more often than they ever planned.

This is how an obscure supercar helped launch America’s answer to the Nürburgring

The story traces the unlikely origins of Car and Driver’s Lightning Lap, one of the most recognized performance tests in American automotive media. According to the transcript, the idea grew from Warren Mosler’s belief that the United States needed its own version of the Nürburgring, where production cars could be compared by lap times on the same demanding track. Virginia International Raceway became the setting, using its long Grand Course layout to create a benchmark that went beyond simple 0-to-60 numbers. The Mosler MT900 became part of that early story, offering huge speed, real pressure, and a memorable high-speed run through VIR’s climbing esses. The result is a behind-the-scenes look at how an obscure supercar and one manufacturer’s challenge helped shape a test that still defines modern performance cars.
