Unplugged Performance and Randy Pobst had clear skies, a dialed Dark Helmet, and a goal from years past as he raced to 14,115 ft at the 101st running of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.
Watch on for a full recap of the week leading up to race day, the full record-setting run with turn-by-turn commentary from Randy and a discussion between Randy and UP CEO, Ben Schaffer, around all the testing, tuning and components required to pull off such a successful race day. With a time of 9:54.901, Dark Helmet, piloted by Randy Pobst:
-Ran a sub 10-minute run
-Placed 2nd in class
-Placed in the Top 10 overall out of 66 cars
-Set a new record for the fastest production based EV & Modified Production EV
All accomplished utilizing the incredible Tesla engineering and DNA found in every daily driven Model S Plaid luxury sedan. Dark Helmet has factory power, battery, cooling, and software.
Congrats to all drivers & teams who put it on the line to challenge the mountain this year! It takes admirable commitment to run this race!
