Here's how Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters describes Ludicrous Mode in his Tesla (TSLA)

Dave Grohl has a need for electric speed.

Foo Fighters founder Dave Grohl and his band have a new record out — "Concrete and Gold," their ninth — but Grohl is 48 and a well-to-do rock star.

So the former Nirvana drummer also has a $140,000 Tesla.

We learn this from a Rolling Stone profile by Josh Eells. Eells didn't specify which Tesla Grohl owns, but it's evidently a Model S P100D.

It has Ludicrous Mode acceleration, which in the Model S P100D delivers supercar-beating sub-3-second 0-60 mph times.

And Grohl likes it, as Eells reports:

Might be better than rock 'n roll. And we can confirm that it is both thrilling and sort of the stupidest thing.
