No where. We're already max'ed out on the cool factor as it is.

The video would have had more meaning had the Tesla S lost....

If you want to compare apples to apples, the only true apple-apple test is to have 2 identical cars race. But at that point, it is not a competition between cars, its a competition between drivers.
Anyway, it doesn't really matter too much, because who the winner is in any race, can be argued. You could say that in your video, the GTR won the race, which it did. If you're a nerd like me though, I would say "maybe, sure, but the Tesla is still cooler". EV Cars are fast, quiet, more energy efficient, higher tech, blah blah blah blah... Taking Tesla out of the equation for a minute, if you race an EV Car against a Mustang for example, The Mustang will probably win, but wasting a lot of energy to do it. Hence, to me, EV is "cooler" and always "wins".
Peace.
