I mean most of the unknown factors of other human motorists disappear on the race track...isn't it far more impressive if the plaid went around the Nurburgring with a computer at the wheel?

I agree with your overall point. FWIW , they are just a car company that broke a record. Nothing more or less. I give Musk credit for creating a successful car company - against all odds. Almost no 'expert' thought he could pull it off. My 2 cents worth.
