Roadster owners to get autonomous stunts and a Texas looping track

📍 Teslarati

Elon Musk said Saturday, in an X reply to tech blogger Robert Scoble, that Tesla Roadster owners will be able to ask the car to autonomously perform any of the tricks shown at the unveiling. Musk also promised a looping track at Tesla's Texas HQ. At the October 15 event outside Waco, the car drove up a curved ramp until upside down, flew on cold gas thrusters, flipped and landed. Musk did not say when the feature would arrive, how it would work, or what he means by "sentient." Tesla plans production at Giga Texas in 2027 or 2028 and says the car is not approved for public road use.

🔎 Why it matters: Musk describes owners asking the Roadster to run the October 15 maneuvers without a driver, which differs from the steer-by-wire yoke control Tesla has described.
📈 Upside: Musk says there will be a looping track at the Texas HQ where owners can test their Roadster.
📉 Risk: There is no date for the autonomous feature and no method described, and the Roadster is not approved for public road use.
