Spring and anti-roll-bar rates were increased and the ACR was fitted with forged aluminum wheels and track-ready race tires.

Sorry, state of charge typically doesn't effect power till it gets down around 30% or so and range extending profiles are enacted, the bigger issue is going to be heat in the battery. I have driven/ tested Tesla's (and other EV's) on track and they really are only good for about 1 lap before heat starts causing a power reduction, as you see in the display, the battery got hot and it seemed to not accel as hard onto the front straight after turn 9 (last turn). Still a very impressive build. I know Jessie as well, a very good man, I am happy to see him doing well.

so a fully gutted tesla with slick tyres, suspension brakes and a time attack downforce package is history? Frankly id be fucking pissed if i spent all that time and money to modify this turd only to barely beat a porche and viper that are factory cars on road tyres by a second. garbage lol

Hey, this is next level video! And congrats to Unplugged Performance for this achievement!

Porsche gets SMOKED!! 4800LBS Plaid baby! ⚡️🔥 🚀 🇺🇲

The lack of engine sound is a real problem when going fast... tons of VERY good drivers screw up due to it.

I am just impressed of the performance of the zo6 as a stock street car coming so damn close to the tesla with a stripped interior, cage, agressive aero, 1000 hp, and race tires. I think a car like the 911 gt3 would be faster than the tesla even with it being a street car on street tires because it has a bit more aero than the c8.

The regular model S plaid scored a time of 1:27.78 wheras the zo6 was like 1:32 if we are comparing street cars to street cars, the plaid still comes out on top it should be noted that the regular model S plaid is comparable price to the regular zo6, I don't know much about race times, but if 5 seconds is comparable, then we should be comparing the unmodified plaid to the unmodified zo6

It's Rimac NEVERA not Nivera boiii

“Saying dark helmet has arrow is as saying Elon musk has money is a bit of an understatement” had me cracked up, that was brilliant.😂😂

Did not expect such great content 👍🔥

I'd really love to see you cover the 911 Turbo S out there that have aero kits.. Brabus, Top-Car, Stinger GTR, VENOM, and Tech-Art.. At least... That's what I remember off the top of my head..

@@Al-ep8dz I agree this record isn’t impressive at all. This plaid has 1000HP, Racing Slicks, Huge aftermarket aero and is completely gutted! Its only able to be a OEM factory car by 1 second 💀. Meanwhile the Porsche is stock with an OEM option( no slicks or gutted) and they’re calling it modified. Sigh… I love my Model X but Tesla’s aren’t track cars and will never be!

Petrol V12 doesn't lose performance if the fuel tank is 66%.

That is true, technically it goes faster with a lighter tank. But a petrol V12 is also a BITCH to maintain, and racing it takes years of its life. Launching one is so traumatic to the motor & transmission that companies limit how many launches you can do before you void your warranty. EVs don't care - launching and racing doesn't hurt the motor one bit.
