Midnight Mayhem Part 2 - Street Legal Racing - 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance - Ludicrous

If you're looking to purchase a Tesla Use my code and get $1,000 off today. ts.la/david835884 Welcome to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Today we attend midnight mayhem Street legal racing. Is $25 per racer and unlimited racing until midnight. At this event, we still had the 20 inch wharf wheels. I plan to come the next event with 18 inch wheels to see if we can run up faster time.

Fun video but you are destroying your times by using Track Mode. Track Mode cools the battery which slows you down more than anything. Those headlights use basically no power. Leave them on but you have to take it out of Track Mode. Precondition the battery instead of running it in Track Mode and you will run 10.7s @ 126+ mph. Also put your Dragy on the rear speaker. The magnet in the speaker will hold the Dragy in place.

[@VegasModel3]

Great advice. Definitely not using track mode for the next event. I will try the preconditioning also. I was wondering where to put that dragy lol

[@LearningFast]

@@VegasModel3 just leave preconditioning going until the “preconditioning” word disappears. Leave the A/C off. You shouldn’t have your A/C on even in the staging lanes. It drips water and makes the track slippery.

[@VegasModel3]

@LearningFast didn’t even think about that with the AC. Great advice.

[@HawkTuah-su6ny]

And where are your results @learning fast ? Still waiting.

[@LearningFast]

@@HawkTuah-su6ny everything is posted on Dragy. I am editing the video as we speak.

[@billiBruce]

What is the tint all around? Thanks

[@MrGunner121]

Apparently you don't want to be in track mode for optimal performance, as it cools the battery temps and you want higher temps for more acceleration, which you can get by preconditioning a few minutes before

[@VegasModel3]

Exactly was really just testing it out. Next event will not be using track mode.

[@notmyfaultthisishappening3795]

High temps + high current = accelerated chemical aging of the battery cells. Track mode keeping the battery cooler is to prolong the life of the pack.

[@missilistico]

10.8! And great friendly commentary. The motoman nearly soiled himself lol

[@VegasModel3]

Thanks! Yea he works at the speedway and is an awesome guy! Cool bike also Harley

[@Cryptodegen2A]

Awesome, very thorough info for those who actually like to regularly track their cars. Thanks so much and looking forward to future vids! Would love to see a 1/4 mile and 0-60 test with a LR or non plaid S!

[@dporrasxtremeLS3]

Great racing. In the future is there any way you could put the settings on your screen just before you start your race, where we see both cars or at least the car on your side left or right as it either gets past by you or? Thanks.

[@VegasModel3]

Absolutely 👍

[@dporrasxtremeLS3]

@@VegasModel3 Thanks!

[@Elite101Jr]

The draggy and time slip only had a .02 difference. Wow that’s accurate!

[@HawkTuah-su6ny]

10.892 at 9:14 125.73 great run. 94% SOC . I know it’ll go quicker though. 13:30 10.950 nice run as well……

[@VegasModel3]

I’m going to try my best to go faster. What do you think about the 18 inch wheels? Slower or faster.

[@flightgamer7849]

I was really wanting to see how fast you pulled away from the Model Y Performance in first race. Not just the numbers. Bummer. Nice video and commentary anyway.

[@VegasModel3]

I know I wanted to get more angles. I learned a lot this week and then the next event we will have more angles

[@SkyRiver1]

Other vids show that track mode makes it slower.

[@VegasModel3]

I have to agree because of the amount draw from the battery. You tend to lose a lot of battery fast I noticed. Plus the added draw during the run.

[@don2727]

Nice tint. What % is it all around? I’m getting my white on white M3P 2024 tinted soon

[@VegasModel3]

5% all around

[@hero6141]

HEY I FINALLY FOUND A VIDEO OF THE NEW M3P IN THE COLOR I WANTED, BLACK WITH WHITE INTERIOR. This color combo has convinced me and I'm wondering what % tints did u get for ur car?

[@Mamba310]

I have the Ludacris in red

[@makie3485]

Subbed to your channel. Good to see a fellow Las Vegas Tesla m3p enjoyer. I ordered stealth grey/black June 22nd still waiting on delivery. How long from order to deliver was your wait?

[@devinliang]

How do we contact you?

[@OrdainedPrepper]

Great video; can’t wait for multiple camera angles. Doesn’t track mode activate battery cooling?

[@VegasModel3]

Absolutely I’m going to have more cameras for the next event. Track mode does actively cool the battery and drains it fast. I didn’t like how I couldn’t do the fullscreen to see the visualizations so next time will not be using track mode.

[@OrdainedPrepper]

@@VegasModel3 are you on the stock P-Zero’s on 20” wheels that came with the car? If so, how do you like the staggered set-up? I live in northern Idaho and can see some snow, so I’m torn between purchasing a set of Michelin Pilot Sport All-Seasons and spending more on a dedicated 18” or 19” wheel set-up wrapped with Michelin X-Ice. Do you have any advice on which route you would consider?

[@VegasModel3]

@OrdainedPrepper yes running on the stock 20s with the P-Zeros. The more and more I use the staggered set up I like it. These wheels are probably the best stock factory wheels from Tesla ever

[@OrdainedPrepper]

Which 18” wheel have you used on your 2024 M3P? Have you featured it on any of your videos? I’m thinking about getting a set of dedicated winter set-up.

[@VegasModel3]

@OrdainedPrepper yes exactly. You’re gonna want to have 18 inch wheels for a great winter set up. They do run a little bit smoother you get better efficiency but they just don’t look as good as the beautiful 20 inch warp wheels.

[@rctezluh42069]

did you get 12.5 yet

[@VegasModel3]

I got it yesterday. Video coming out tonight.

[@VegasGabe777]

I was waiting for you to put it in sport mode. Performance seemed the same though. Did you feel any difference in sport mode?

[@VegasModel3]

I really didn’t feel any difference in sport mode for the handling. Too much going on to really analyze it. I learned a lot at this event. The next one should be even better.

[@twodogs1298]

I really like the pro tree, yellow go! Fun video can't wait for the next video with more cameras.

[@VegasModel3]

Thanks! It’s super fun. Yellow and stand on that pedal :)

[@evolutiondez]

Awesome videos!! I am looking to hit up Vegas mayhem August 2, I see they don’t allow temporary license plates… do you already have your actual license plate ? Or still on the temporary plates ? I appreciate the help

[@VegasModel3]

Temporary dealer place will work. Just have to show registration and insurance and ID.

[@VegasModel3]

Will see you there on the 2nd

[@robertcoursey5603]

I was there in a white ‘23 M3P. I have a few videos of your runs as well.

[@VegasModel3]

I saw you but not when you were racing. Looks so sick :) would love to see the footage

[@ryanpetree6475]

Amazing daily driver performance. In track mode, are you able to send all power to the front or rear, so that you can do a quick burnout to clean tires off and get a perfect launch?

[@VegasModel3]

I think you can switch the bias, but I’m too scared to spin those tires and throw rubber everywhere lol

[@ryanpetree6475]

@@VegasModel3 Just a quick 3 second burnout wont do much. Get some painters tape and tape up the fenders if ur worried about paint though.

[@Ems00837]

Your countdown is pointless at the starting line dude 🤦‍♂️

[@VegasModel3]

I hear you buddy. It just helps me time things better. Maybe I should be quiet lol but it’s hard.

[@chuanyaozhong1158]

Super cool🏆

[@theoriginaljabootee]

Thanks appreciate it

[@theoriginaljabootee]

Where did you get your tint done in Vegas ?

[@VegasModel3]

I used to living low Mobile Window Tint. 702-371-5773. Did an amazing job. It’s mobile and great deal. Ceramic tint

[@pacmanrb27]

@@VegasModel3 Its nice indeed!!! Mind telling us the percentage on each window?

Dang finally 😂💯💯

[@howzettt]

It’s not a ludicrous trim. Y’all tripping. Shit said performance and y’all thinking you got an S ludicrous that runs low 10’s. I’ll still gap that shit with my civic. Tesla owners are a joke. Up naming their shit to feel better bout themselves

[@ChosenMJ]

I tried telling him that but he’s still hyped about his new car. Eventually he will wake up.😂😂

[@NickWainwright6970]

Grow up !. It’s a bog standard car that runs 10’s all day every day. Not an over tuned 4 cylinder that can explode at any minute.

[@howzettt]

@@NickWainwright6970 “run 10s all day” my boy can’t even do a lap around a track without battery overheating. What a joke. All day to you is like 2 minutes. Wonder what your wife says about you. “I go all night, your ass last 2 seconds. “Grow up” hahaha.

Don’t have a dog in this fight but those are 100% ludicrous badges
