The tesla is really fast to 70mph or so, after that it constantly lose power as it revs.

Most things are software limited in modern cars. The question is, if you improved the battery pack so it could deliver more power, would the motors handle it?

The limitations are there to protect the battery pack and motors - Teslas are production cars with multi-year warranty, so the conservative limits are accordingly.
