Tesla’s tuned version of its Model S has been making waves ever since it was announced last year, and we have seen it do some pretty incredible things so far. It beat a Lamborghini Aventador off the line and it absolutely obliterated a Challenger Hellcat in a drag race, and it did it all without a single drop of gasoline. The Model S might not be the most refined luxury car on the road, but there’s no question that the P85D can hang with even the fastest supercars on the market.

Precious few people know what it’s like to actually sit in a Model S P85D when the driver floors it, but now a hilarious new video gives us a pretty good idea of what all that power feels like.

YouTube channel DragTimes recently posted an awesome video that shows people’s reactions when sitting in Tesla’s P85D when the driver floors it from a stop. After all, seeing a 3.2-second 0-60 time on paper is nothing like sitting in a sports car and experiencing it.

The full video is embedded below. Be sure to watch their faces…
