- Today, I'm out with LUXE Auto Spa
out at the Kars4Kids event.
It's called Limitless. (engine revs)
Every year, they have it.
Last year, I had the white Model X,
and I tried to see if I could hit
the top speed of 155 miles an hour.
It didn't happen, and I was really disappointed,
and a lot of you guys said it's because
my battery wasn't charged enough,
and that probably is right.
I think the software was limiting us.
So this year I brought my P100D out.
We have a full charge.
I usually have 280 miles range when it's fully charged.
Right now, 274.
That thing is full.
So I'm gonna get inside of this thing
just to make sure that we have everything right.
We are gonna put it in driving mode, Ludicrous Plus.
Are you sure?
Yes.
Yes?
Okay, yes. (laughs)
I don't know if I did it.
Okay, yes, heating the battery, 15 minutes.
Since last year, Tesla did do a software update
that took the maximum speed of the Model X
from 155 up to 163, so that is the question today.
Can we hit 163?
I just raced this car,
and apparently, the license plate is totally coming off.
And there are some crazy cool cars here.
Check this out.
We've got this fancy whatever it is, Lamborghini.
That is a purple Lamborghini of a guy named Stradman.
This BMW, I know it's an SUV,
but don't be fooled, it is so fast.
(upbeat music)
All right, we are rolling up
to the starting line in the Model X.
- One thing I need to add is
watch for flags flying on the side of the road.
If you see somebody on the side waving, shut it down.
- Shut it down, okay.
- We had an antelope running across.
- That's crazy.
- It was crazy. (Daniel laughs)
- There was an antelope that ran
across the road a few cars ago,
so I'm gonna watch out for that.
Launch mode, and make sure all my GoPros are rolling.
I got my crew out here, Jared from Ellie and Jared.
He's hooking me up today.
We got Zach up here with his fire suit on.
He's helping out.
And all the GoPros are set.
We gotta go fast.
163 is a must.
I am going all out.
Can a Tesla Model X P100D, almost fully charged,
check it out, 267 miles of range.
That's almost full.
Can it hit the top speed?
We are about to find out, and the rain is coming in quick.
Check that out, rain. (ominous music)
Okay, are we good, good?
Okay, this is it.
I'm gonna set this camera down.
(suspenseful music) Ready, whoo!
Let's go, three, two, one.
(suspenseful music)
Yeah! (laughs)
Whoo!
Sounds like the door's open.
(suspenseful music)
107, here we go, moment of truth, we're on this corner.
We come around, get ready, got some raindrops.
(suspenseful music)
Get ready, ready for this.
Go, go, go, full speed, full speed.
I'm going all the way, 19, 20, 21, 22.
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
Whoo!
Go, car, go, yes!
Yes, go! (suspenseful music)
Go! (cheers)
157, 157! (cheers)
That was so fun.
We did it, we went fast.
I don't know why that loud wind noise was happening.
It's like the door wasn't shut or something, wow.
Yes, 157?
- 163.11 - 153.11.
- 63. - What?
- 163. - 163.11.
- 163.11, shut up, really.
(laughs) 163.11, we did it.
That's the max speed of a Tesla.
We maxed it out just barely.
- Ticket for you.
- Oh, it's the sheriff,
and he gives you a ticket at the end.
I hope it doesn't cost too much money,
but it was worth it. (laughs)
Last year, with the 100D, we couldn't do it.
It got red on here.
It only said that I was going, I think, 157,
so but this is laser that was lasering me.
Maybe it's with the wheels, with the 22-inch wheels,
it isn't exactly what my miles per hour is.
I don't know why that door was so loud.
I don't know if you heard that, but it was like whistling.
I tried to roll up the windows.
Don't try this at home unless you have
like a closed road to do it.
Here's my ticket.
- Don't try this at home, right?
- No, yes, no. (laughs)
- So 163, so 98 miles over the speed limit.
- Whoa, that's a legit ticket. - There you go.
- [Daniel] Utah County Sheriff.
Okay, thank you, I guess. (laughs)
- All right, have a good one.
- I got a ticket for going 98 over the speed limit. (laughs)
I've never been so happy to get a ticket before.
How cool is that?
- That's pretty neat.
- I gotta figure out what that wind is.
I can still hear it.
It was so, aww, the window.
Look at the window, it's like popping out.
That's weird, okay, wow.
Why is my car doing that?
Oh, now it's good.
We weren't even completely aerodynamic,
the drag coefficient or whatever they call it.
The window is all weird, oh my gosh.
One of the best parts about this
is you have to take a long loop to get back,
and there's a park where there's a giant Jumbotron
where everybody's watching this go down,
like all the cars race, and all the speeds,
and the times, and the rankings, and all that stuff.
And so when you ride back, you drive by the park,
and there's just people lined up everywhere.
The other cars like the Ferraris,
and the Lamborghinis and all that, and the Porsches,
they're crazy loud, and everybody hears it,
and they're just like, yeah, that's so cool,
which it is, it is.
Like, they totally do a burnout and everything.
But this one's just quiet,
so I gotta impress them with the wind.
Look at all the people that are there.
- Hey, I'm Daniel. - Hey!
- [Daniel Markham] (laughs) Good name, Daniel.
- How fast did you go? - 163.
- Hmm, that's not bad.
- [Daniel Markham] That's the fastest this car
is allowed to go, like software limited, and I did it.
- So you hit it? - I hit it.
Last year, I couldn't hit it.
I was so pumped that I hit it.
It's all, and the sheriff gave me a ticket
for going 98 miles an hour over the speed limit.
(crowd laughing)
- Sir, you can't go 163 in a 65.
- [Daniel] Did you see my number?
Did you see it, did you see it?
- 163, so good. - Yes.
Was there a loud cheer from the crowd?
Did it just erupt in--
- Ecstatic, ecstatic. - Oh, I bet, I bet.
- It was mostly 'cause it started raining,
but also because you got 163.
- (laughs) Okay, so they gave me a ticket.
Did they give you a ticket when you finished?
- There goes your backpack.
(crowd chattering)
- 163, ooh. - Nice.
- [Man] Of course, he doesn't have the battery to get back.
(men laughing)
- [Daniel] Wait, what did you name your car again?
- The blueberry.
- The blueberry truck? (woman laughs)
