Best Draggy I have been able to pull is 3.32 (3.06 w/1ft ro). But I will say I have not spent much time working on it and never got the launch mode to fully engage, so maybe it could be a tad quicker?

Finally glad to see "my" car in a drag race video. Right down to the tires I have. This does make me wonder if you could have gained a few tenths of a second with the Pirelli summer tires. That would have put it right at the claimed 3.1 seconds.
I never found launch mode to be any real improvement. I did so many runs, charge levels, configurations, and nothing really seemed to make a huge difference. Basically the car runs about 3.3 0-60, not 3.1 like claimed. Tesla lied (again).Best Draggy I have been able to pull is 3.32 (3.06 w/1ft ro).

Do you still have the performance or did you go with something else?If you like to compare with older model S best 0-60 I ever got out of my 2020 performance was this

Althiugh there is an asterisk to this one it was gutted (380lbs lighter than full interior) BUT with a big ME at steering weighting 265lbs at the time
He’s got the currently quickest Plaid in the world right nowDo you still have the performance or did you go with something else?
No, Tesla only claims the 0-60 time with the 1ft rollout for the Plaid. There is no asterix + footnote for the LR 0-60, so it should be 3.1 as advertised.He’s got the currently quickest Plaid in the world right now
Tesla’s 0-60 claims are with the 1ft rollout, so technically the 3.3 actual 0-60 is just about right as that basically puts it at the 3.1 considering the rollout
Still, the LR is a much quicker car than that and would be atleast 2.5 if Tesla have it the proper launch. It’s quicker than the old Performance from every other performance metric
The 1 foot rollout is industry standard though so I don’t think they’d do it for one and not the otherNo, Tesla only claims the 0-60 time with the 1ft rollout for the Plaid. There is no asterix + footnote for the LR 0-60, so it should be 3.1 as advertised.

My daily is now a 22 mslrDo you still have the performance or did you go with something else?
They literally are doing that exactly, the screenshot I shared above was from the Tesla website.The 1 foot rollout is industry standard though so I don’t think they’d do it for one and not the other
Who knows though
It's been the same with the Model 3 Long Range vs. Peformance. See here and click "Learn more about range and performance" on the right.
They're not going to anything, it's take it or leave it at this point.This is one that Tesla needs to address, but we all know they likely will not. They advertise 0-60 in 3.1 seconds and there is not an asterisk, so there is no ambiguity there, the car should be able to do 0-60 in 3.1 seconds, no roll-out.
Not one person has posted a 0-60 time in 3.1 Not one, zero.
I love my car and it's the fastest Tesla I have owned to date, but it pains me that people are getting the claimed 3.1 (or less) in the Model 3 Performance but the much more expensive Model S does not meet the marketing claims.
Tesla has pushed out updates in the past that have boosted performance and I really think they need to push one out here. If not a single Model S can achieve 0-60 in 3.1 seconds I would not be surprised if Tesla does not get hit with yet another Class Action.
No matter what . 0-60 is... not best to measure performance....This is one that Tesla needs to address, but we all know they likely will not.

Exactly! New MSLR is running high 10s at almost 130mph. M3P is mid 11s around 115mph at bestNo matter what . 0-60 is... not best to measure performance....
Line up a model3 perf against a refresh model S lr for a quater mile run and see whos gonna win. I am betting mslr will easily walk the m3p
Except I bought a car that claimed 3.1 sec 0-60 and I want a car that can do 3.1 0-60. Period.Exactly! New MSLR is running high 10s at almost 130mph. M3P is mid 11s around 115mph at best

and the Plaid was supposed to be a 200mph car….Except I bought a car that claimed 3.1 sec 0-60 and I want a car that can do 3.1 0-60. Period.

It’s not easy for the Plaid to hit the magical 1.99 with rollout either...
STILL, 0-60 is a pointless metric and really proves nothing about a car’s acceleration
I know my car is quick, and as stated before, I love my car but you cannot come here and say 0-60 is pointless. It is literally the only acceleration performance metric Tesla stakes a claim to when selling their cars.
Not deflecting anything, just basically saying get over it in a round about way because 0-60 doesn’t show anything for how quick the car isI am not talking about nor interested in the Plaid. My kids do this all the time and it drives me crazy, it's called deflection. If I owned a Plaid I would have major issues with both the points you brought up.
On this thread we are talking about the performance of the new MSLR and the main point of my post is to try to get more people posting draggy times. Maybe there are a lot of cars that can hit the claimed 0-60, but to-date I have yet to see one.
This is my 3rd Model S and both of my other cars were able to match or beat the claimed 0-60. My 2013 P85 could do 4.3 (4.4 claimed) and my 2020 Long Range + hit the claimed 3.7 on several occasions.
The Palladium Long Range is not limited by physics, it's limited by software. So all I am saying is that if no one can hit the claimed 0-60, Tesla should do the right thing and push out an update to get it there.
