A Tesla Model S Plaid modified by Unplugged Performance has set a new lap record at Willow Springs Raceway in\u00a0Rosamond, California.<\/p>\n

As you may be aware, the Unplugged Model S Plaid\u00a0holds the Laguna Seca EV lap record<\/a>. Furthermore, a stock Model S Plaid was briefly the fastest-production EV around the Nurburgring before its time was bettered by a Porsche Taycan Turbo S earlier this year<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, the Unplugged Plaid is not just the number one EV around Willow Springs, but the quickest car period. Its\u00a01:13.51 time comfortably bettered the previous 1:16.45 record set by a\u00a0modified Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Unplugged Plaid features a wide array of performance upgrades, including a new suspension setup, carbon-ceramic brakes and an aero kit. Given the suspension upgrade alone costs in the region of $15,000, it’s safe to assume this record-setting Plaid has over $30,000 worth of modifications. Check out the below video to see the Unplugged Plaid in action.<\/p>\n
