Tesla Model S Plaid E-ROY Cyber Kart
Kyle Wade of the Boosted Boiz purchased a wrecked Tesla Model S Plaid and decided to gut the vehicle in hopes of making it even faster. Fortunately, the only major damage was in the rear, leaving just about everything else, including the 1,020 horsepower tri-motor setup, fully functional.



Straight from the factory, the 4,745-pound Tesla Model S Plaid can do 0-60 mph in a mere 1.99-seconds, but after removing the doors and interior, the ensuing 4,040-pound E-ROY is expected to be much faster. Unfortunately, maintaining traction was an issue, which meant sprinting to 60 mph took slightly longer at 2.35 seconds. Wade then proceeded to remove even more parts like the glass roof, rear quarter panels and steel B pillars to bring the final weight down to just 3,850-pounds. All of this meant it was able to complete the 0-60 mph run in 1.87-seconds and achieve a 9.33-second quarter mile.
