Cyberfest & Furious 2025: Cybertrucks Humiliated Gas Cars, Drifted Like Maniacs, And Threw A Wild Light Show - CleanTechnica
The Cyberfest & Furious 2025 event held on November 15, 2025, at Showtime Speedway in Clearwater was a spectacular celebration of Tesla vehicles, particularly Cybertrucks, showcasing their dominance over traditional gas-powered cars. The event featured drag races where Cybertrucks consistently outperformed powerful fossil-fuel competitors like Cadillac Escalades, Hellcats, Ram TRXs, and even a Lamborghini Huracán, demonstrating the impressive instant torque and acceleration of electric vehicles. The crowd was energized by the thrilling races and the variety of Tesla models competing, including divisions for different drivetrain configurations and an "All Tesla Models" class. Beyond drag racing, the event turned chaotic and exciting with the CyberDrift sudden-elimination battles, where Cybertrucks slid sideways on a damp track in a wild, unpolished style reminiscent of "Florida Man" antics. Spectators witnessed dramatic drifts, near crashes, and spectacular recoveries, with one CyberBeast spinning 720 degrees yet continuing to drift,

Tesla has filed a US patent for an innovative inflatable aerodynamic deflector designed to improve the towing efficiency of its Cybertruck. The system consists of air bladders made from drop-stitch fabric that inflate from the truck bed to form a semi-rigid, wedge-shaped spoiler. This deflector bridges the gap between the Cybertruck and a trailer, smoothing airflow and reducing drag—a major challenge for electric pickups when towing. The device can be securely attached using various fasteners and includes a pressure-regulating mechanism to maintain stability. When not in use, it remains deflated and stowed, preserving the Cybertruck’s distinctive angular design. Towing significantly reduces the driving range of electric vehicles due to increased aerodynamic drag, making solutions like this deflector critical for improving real-world performance. Tesla’s inflatable spoiler aims to channel air more efficiently over and around trailers, thereby conserving battery power and mitigating the range penalty associated with towing. Unlike permanent aerodynamic add-ons, this lightweight, deployable system offers flexibility and practicality.

Tesla has decided to cancel the Long Range model of its Cybertruck, which was previously the most affordable option available. This decision came just five months after the model was introduced, raising questions about the reasons behind the swift cancellation. The move could have significant implications for Tesla, a company already facing various challenges in the market. The cancellation of the cheapest Cybertruck variant may affect Tesla's ability to attract budget-conscious customers and could impact overall sales projections for the vehicle. While the article does not provide detailed reasons for the cancellation, it suggests that this development might add pressure to Tesla's current struggles, possibly related to production, supply chain issues, or strategic shifts in product offerings.

The article reviews the Urander Enclosed Bed Cap Kit designed specifically for the Tesla Cybertruck, highlighting its development and practical use. Urander initially created a bed rack kit tailored to the Cybertruck’s unique angular design, featuring side panels that attach to factory rack mount points and crossbars for added rigidity and gear mounting. Building on this, Urander developed an enclosed bed cap system that incorporates storage compartments into the walls, enhancing the truck’s utility for adventure and camping. A notable upcoming accessory is a tent that allows users to stand inside the truck bed and pull down a sleeping platform, significantly increasing camping comfort and functionality. The author received a pre-production Urander kit for testing, which was representative of units delivered to early customers. Installation involved mounting three side panels to the Cybertruck’s factory rack points, adding foam strips for waterproofing, and securing a rear door with air struts and polycarbonate glass to enclose the bed. Roof panels were then attached underneath the rack rails, a process improved
