I hope it traps 125ish. That will be as fast as my manual 991.2 GT3 and it will be my daily driver.

I've heard that these 21s are not forged like the original referral program Arachnids. I just happen to have both currently parked in my driveway. Will find some time and weigh them.
They've been weighed by a vendor here, but the weight they documented includes the tires.
Vendor - Official Signature Wheel Gallery | Model S Plaid & Performance.
Ya I believe the fronts are 31lbs and the rears are 35lbs. Way too heavy for a performance car. I would go with 20" forged wheels on a Plaid model S.
As close to a perfect 2 car garage as one can get.

Thank you kind sir.
NSX with common mods is low to mid 130s but you are right, high 120s would be stock NSX. That would be impressive.
I can’t believe we’re still waiting for the first 1/4 dragy for the LR. Is there not at least one enthusiast that bought a LR?
True enthusiasts only buy Plaid

Been raining nonstop here for the past week. Hopefully lets up tomorrow night so I can make it to the track.

The Plaid videos so far only show Supercars or modified performance cars. However I kinda wish we had more videos of Plaid vs normalish cars like M3s or C63 or even more basic cars like WRXs or GolfR. I want to see what real world beating looks like.

ok, i will be on the lookout for those type of videos for you
Remember when the P100D made all the cars like that look super slow? There's a vid on youtube of the Plaid racing a P100D (stupidly, on the street, but still) and it's like that. The Plaid makes the P100D look like a boring normal car. The difference between high 10's and low 10's is huge. The difference between mid 10's and mid 9's is giganticThe Plaid videos so far only show Supercars or modified performance cars.

Yeah, I figured these would be very boring videos. It’ll probably just look like the other car wasn’t even trying. But I’m trying to wrap my head around how quick this car is. I watched Dragtimes 765lt vs SF90 and both these cars would get destroyed by the Plaid on the street. Their only chance is on super sticky drag tracks where the Plaid only gets marginally quicker while they get a whole .5sec quicker if not more for the 765.
I don’t think I can imagine how quick the Plaid is until I drive it. My Zr1 or 911TT were quick cars but will feel slow in comparison and that’s very hard to imagine.
There are approximately 100 yards of road I could use that much performance on my daily drives. I'm just here for the cars that won't get kicked out of the drag strip lol

There was one video on youtube that showed Plaid versus an 800 hp C7 Z06 on a roll. So that may be hind of like a C7 ZR1 comparo? The difference was like a Ferrrai racing a yugo. The beating was that bad...lol.
So far there's no comparisons. Viewing the numbers on line in the forums don't offer the perspective of how fast the Plaid really is IRL.
