Track Mode in the Model Y is terrible for straight-line acceleration. It cools the battery off and severely limits acceleration over 40 mph. You also had just over 100 miles of range which is way less than half a battery. You were handicapping the Tesla for no reason. You should have navigated to a supercharger to heat the battery. That gains at least 50 HP on the top end. Track Mode is not for Drag racing with this vehicle.

@updlate4756

Yep. Not only does the Durango have a larger front surface area (A) than the Y, its drag coefficient (Cd) is .38 versus the Y's .23. Total drag is Cd*A*(Velocity^2 / 2). The faster the vehicles go, the more air resistance pushing back on the Durango, and that proportional difference increases as they go faster. Add that the Durango weighs about 1150 lbs more, which impacts energy needed to accelerate, and amount of braking power needed to slow down, and it makes that Durango's powertrain that much more impressive... They have slammed this same powertrain into the Challenger (Black Ghost) and it beat the model Y (without track package) time... albeit it's a smaller vehicle. It matched the model Y (with track package). It was also spinning the tires at the start of the race and at the turn around, which definitely hurt its time. Turns out this powertrain is so powerful, maintaining traction is the real challenge. The Durango is so heavy that it actually helps it maintain traction better than the Challenger which helps its time, but it just can't compete with the 1900 lb weight savings and better aero in the Challenger. The Black Ghost matched the model Y (with track pack) time, but it crossed the line traveling 14 mph faster. Not only did the loss of traction hurt its final time, it also hurt the speed it crossed the line at. The differential between it and the Y could have been even larger.
