The Tesla Model S Plaid takes on a tuned ZX14 at the Orlando Speedway World event, currently underway in Florida until October the 14th
The pair lined up for the race against the spectacular setting, for a rolling race
The lights turn green and the two set off towards the horizon
The Tesla though gave it the beans a tad bit earlier and was off, gaining some blistering pace early on
The ZX14 meanwhile, which sounds rather mega by the way, opened up the throttle perfectly at the start line
And started to reel in the Plaid, but the 1/4 mile just wasn't enough for the ZX14 to take down the Tesla
And so the Tesla got the win over the Kawasaki, but the bike wasn't far behind
And the time slip is proof of this with the Plaid managing 8.148 seconds at 152.71 mph while the ZX14 clocked in a time of 8.167 seconds at 153.35 mph
The ZX14 did give the Tesla Plaid a run for its money, despite setting off a tad bit later as compared to the Plaid
I'd definitely like to see a rematch between these two, with Andrew himself looking forward to it. Swipe Up to Read More.
