have probably dozens of quarter-mile runs in their own Plaid alone. Now they’re taking on a modified Hayabusa and it ends up being one fantastic competition.
Before we just give away the results let’s review the match-up just a bit. The Model S Plaid featuresThat power is, of course, sent to all four wheels and can rocket the car down the drag strip in just 9.2 seconds. That kind of performance isn’t just a fluke either. The 4,700-pound Tesla can do that over and over again with almost no drop in performance.
In this video, it’s going up against a 2012 Suzuki Hayabusa. When it was first released, the Busa, as it’s often called, was one of the world’s most powerful bikes. It should be too considering that it uses a 1.3-liter four-cylinder engine. Things get spicier in this video though because this is no stock Hayabusa, as it has an aftermarket swing arm and a tune that allows it to run E85 fuel.
