This is how much roll my Plaid with MPP solid bushings takes on 285 RE-71RS 200TW AutoX tires.

N2Tive .. Super expensive for what it is though

Honestly looks super good. Mine is white with the tempest painted in gloss black. Looks mean, the stance looks really wide. Those pics were before my alignment update (more camber) and additional lowering in front.

Talking about wheels tire efficiency, I have an example with huge impact on my Plaid... - 255/45-19 and 285/40-19 Continental Procontact RX with Tempest without aero covers and 20mm Bonoss spacers all around and lowering links at -6 = 260Wh/mi average on my daily work commute - T-Sportline TSF...

The M3 Competition Xdrive is 4000Lbs or close and carries 275 front and 285 rear. 4000 Lbs is heavy..

I listened to his driving comments and his comments made total sense vs my opinion of previous Model 3. Previous one needed square 265 or 275 to have enough front grip for any kind of track/AutoX driving. Suspension/weight is the same minus shocks on this one, so this remark with stay true

They don't want it to beat the cyberbeast ^^

There was other runs on dry pavement and it was the same 11.0@123 In perfect conditions, probably will do 10.8s (like on a strip)@124mph Kyle was saying car is under tired in the front which it has to be with only 235 like the old one there. Was also saying bushing were a little too soft for a...

Your Z was probably an auto and stock suspension. Because I drove the top hot hatches from Europe/JP (Renault Megane 3 RS 275 CUP, Type R, 147 GTA etc ) for several years and were miles better than a Mini and a M7 Z is miles ahead in all departments including fun.

Not this much. It shows 1.2G acceleratuing and braking which is normal for a Plaid on good tires. In corners the sustained G's are 1.2G. The peaks at 1.6G are really short and not "real" load, just sustained for a few tenth during a quick change of direction

285/35-20 Brigestone RE71-RS Front and Rear. I would need wider all around, like 315...

Just for info, the Plaid turns extremely well and is in fact considerably faster than a Model 3 P even on tight AutoX. With my previous M3 with full coilvers, MPP suspensions, and 200TW I was 1.5s behind the GT3 in raw. With the Plaid we are trading blows and my Plaid is nearly stock, and...

Light driver (165 Lbs) PS4S on aero wheels MPP page Mill brakes and MPP suspension parts (lots of front camber) Good alignment Lowered 20mm on coilcovers Battery at 95F 3 runs at same time and speed on different lanes.

I did a full custom alignment and installed the rear XP12 Did local AutoX event today and the car was really good. Way faster than my previous Model 3. I did left foot braking the whole day and man it makes a difference on this car... The brakes were amazing with the XP12 pads F/R I fought...

My boosted 2021 LR was doing [email protected]

There is still this massive drop after 45-50 mph... That's pretty disapointing...

Your reasoning is not sound at all, it is absolutely wrong. This basic physics and you visibly skipped newtonian physics classes :) (or you forgot ^^)

Don't know... I see around 3.5-4.0s for 60-95 which is not terribly fast...

Looks like it's pulling quite good after 60 !

You guys talking about power figures... You keep talking about battery max power... battery max power is not motors max power... You have losses in the inverters and motors, especially at full power. Tesla probably announces power to the wheels. Probably 90% of the battery power goes to the...

You know that Plaid's are starting to win national AutoX events right ? My almost stock Plaid is pulling 1.4-1.5G in corners already on RE71-RS...

So I learned that the Plaid is having bumpsteer issues at the rear especially when lowered. MPP rear arms set is adjustable to eliminate this. Looks like a rear bracing behind the back seats improves a lot the rigidity of the car...

Yeah not with the camber I was running, which was tucking the top of the wheels under the wheel arches despite the spacers.

I was doing 235wh/mi average last summer with PS4S. 227wh/mi on a 230miles trip. Car lowered and running -3deg of camber front though.

Hello, I do not see a thread for Roadcourse/AutoX modification for the Tesla Model S Plaid. We start to see some guys in time attack and AutoX with VERY fast Plaids winning events. I'm just started to do AutoX this week end with the car. I'm planning to do a few events on roadcourse with the...

I was running MPP Page Mill disks in standard M3P sizes (355mm) + M3P calipers and Bonoss 15mm spacers on mine with Aero wheels for every day use absolutely no problem. No grinding necessary at all. I know that the MPP disks are slightly different than the standard ones (and way better heat...

The brakes look exactly the same diameter, disk and caliper than previous gen. Just a pad change. Lots of 18's will fit, even the aero. I was able to fit 18's aero on MPP 355mm disks and P calipers with a 15mm spacer.

241 pages arguing about the 0-60 ... This is crazy...

Looks like the new off road mode works quite good...

It's exactly the same brakes at previous gen, so the 18's will fit with 15mm spacers... Only difference is a better brake pad compound

Hi, Waiting on my ODB port for my 21 Plaid with 37,000 miles, so I cannot use scan my tesla for now... Was curious, did Tesla update the EPA range for all Plaids (21-24) to show less range or is it only showing on 24's. Asking because mine shows 291-294 miles of range @80%. Would be okay with...

Can we stop talking 0-60 ? This is not the most important metric for this car...

I don't like the capacitive buttons on the steering wheel personally. You need to press unecessary hard to activate them. And I still did not figure out how to cancel a turn signal lol. Once it's on and the car does not see you changing lane it stays on... I need to see how to cancel...It's my...

I went used Plaid on my side. Do not regret it so far...

Update : Got my Plaid since last Friday :)

Bought a Plaid on my end... The specs seem too timid to my taste... Same brakes, same battery, likely same cooling. Going Plaid and suspension bit+wheels + big brakes seemed the best option for me. Don't see a lot of Plaid in AutoX and Time Trial, I like to be different ;)

Not sure you will clear the front knuckles with a 19x12 wheels especially if you run high negative camber... Or you will need spacers or aggressive offset...

What kind of issues do you have with your 2023 ? I'm planning on changing wheels and most of the suspension + lowering so I'm expecting the vibration issues to be almost non existent...

With 62K do you see any noticeable battery degradation/performance decrease ? Are you running stock suspension or did you put some MPP/UP parts like solid bushings/adjustable control arms/camber arms etc ? I'm not dead on on a 21', might take a 22' with low miles... FYI I plan on keeping my...

Hello, Currently considering used Plaid or new Highland Performance (if the damn specs come at some point ! ) With the depreciation of those cars (though maybe not as bad as 3's) I'm kind of relunctant to put more than 60-65K We can start to see 2021 model year around the 65K mark for around...

Drag racing is an American thing. You forget 90% of the rest of the world. Typical American...

Lot of cars come with decent brakes and suspension stock. Camaro SS 1LE has excellent suspension and brakes, E-diff, cooling from factory for example and is/was a cheap car. Cooling is not easy to add for M3P and is critical...

Once again, same brakes as previous M3P, which is not a good news... OEM brakes are cooked even before the battery overheats on the track... Hopefully this is just a drivetrain test car and brakes will be upgraded... Funny how everyone here is stuck on the motor specs and not things that...

EXACTLY

We clearly cannot have constant 400Nm torque with 159KW power cap as you said. Likely we will have 400 or 430Nm max torque at low rpm (below 3700rpm) and linear torque drop off to maintain 159KW all the way to 8000 or 10000rpm, (200Nm@7400 rpm for example). I would like something like that !

Both. Cooling packages offered by MPP and other improve cooling on track days but not to the point the battery does not overheat before it's empty. Motors overheat as well. (M3P) There needs to be work done on both...
