How much was fuel per litre? Was going to take jerry cans

Sorry for geeky question: Do you know how many miles per kWh you get on the track?

Yes agreed that a circuit like Bedford GT really doesn't suit it. A few of us compete in hill climbs and sprints and this is where it does well. Also on a track like Brands Indy or Thruxton. Which pads are you using?

The brake trace is purely hydraulic brake pressure. If you have regen on 100% you won't need as much pressure to decelerate at the same rate as 0% but that's really the only difference. Without upgraded brakes of some sort you'll really have to stick with 100% regen though as they usually overheat on most circuits otherwise. But, yes yours will be Intel Atom GPU.

I'm guessing your car has got the Atom GPU as I can see some stuttering in the data, which is caused by a bug which repeats and sometimes corrupts the data. It can even cause the car to disengage from Track Mode while you're driving, which is annoying to say the least! If that happens, please report the bug via the app with a timestamp so Tesla gets another report from a different owner. We need more reports like this to have a hope of getting the issue fixed, because as time goes in it will only get worse. Thanks!

Thanks a bunch!! Going next week for the first time and this helped a lot! Cheers!

What a lap, what you did to car to make it this fast

very nicce to have a mental map of the circuit ty

Thanks for posting this.

Hell I thought it was max verstappen lol sure is planted on handling. Great lap etc

🌷 Promo sm

How's the downforce on this machine ?

Great video, thanks. I've never done Bedford as it's always been too far but I'll have to get my finger out and make the effort

Stick with your combustion engines people electric is not safe

How does I access that screen he is on

not safe at any speed

Nice lap. I’m there next week for the first time 🤙🏻🏎

Thanks for the video. The comments are right: turn regen to zero for track use. Regen puts energy but also heat into the battery pack and makes things worse for battery heat. As you note, you're working the tires a bit too hard in the turns. The stock Model 3 Performance Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires are very good, but soft compound track tires are better.

the camera is too low

What a rubbish driver

I see that the circuit is displayed on the sat nav. How would FSD handle this track? :D

Solid lap!! Look forward to the coastal lap

nice driving

Nice lap mate. Go on a cold day and your lap will be about 5s faster

Mighty impressive lap, my fastest was at 4:55pm and was a 02:44:22, my lines look pretty similar, I definetty need more track focused tyres and maybe even that 350 upgrade ;-), I'll get my lap uploaded later ..

nice driving

That's impressive indeed 👍

Was hoping it would burst into flames

That Atom was on a very relaxing drive in the corners. You could hear him letting off early and not really pushing at all on corner entry. The GTR only had an advantage in a straight line. Short track 80-150kph corners Atom 100% Long fast track 130-250kph corners GTR. both awesome machines made for very different drivers.

speed is in miles or km?

Turn regeneration off.

just shows you how quick them GTR'S are!!!!!!

great lines, wish I could see the realtime RRPMs....sounds like you are bogging a bit coming out of the tighter corners. Must be a real blast to drive the Atom 4. So jelly.

Haters gonna hate. It's not a race car! oO

Brilliant lap!!

Solid driving matey!

For what you guys spent on these electric cars you could of bought something already track rated like a grand sport c7

Had my heart in my mouth at th-cam.com/video/PQuRXoFkpNo/w-d-xo.html, great reactions, any idea why the back stepped out ? Would also be interested in your GoPro setup, i'm still struggling to find the right setup and location.

Its depend on the temperature outside also

Possibly something to do with termal management and how the battery tech is regulated. No idea though. Hardware problems.

Nice little wiggle at 1:21! Awesome turbo wastegate sound...

That’s why I’ll take my gasoline car to the track any day 🤷🏼‍♂️

Nice driving. Taking mine on the 14th. Interesting how quickly the battery warmed up but I guess the ambient temp fairly warm too. How did you get on with the charging situation? Also what pads did you put on - just looking into that now? Thanks 🙏

What was the state of charge in the video?

Thanks for this video. I also own a Model 3 Performance and have yet to track it - however, I thought Track Mode was supposed to increase cooling for the track but in your case it looked to do the opposite. Dumb question - but did you try doing a stint w/out track mode engaged ? Maybe taking regen down to low could help as someone else had commented.

Yeh overheating is still problem when racing but Tesla is getting there, compare to Model S it huge difference it don't lose as much power (abut 10% I heard )and you can drive in this state for some time. Plus MP3 have only one gear and acceleration fall of cliff after 120mph and energy use go way up. I wander if someone can make upgrade to MP3 cooling system like better radiators etc.

Is this a Model 3 Performance or a Model 3 Peformance+ and when was it manufactured?

Thanks for that video. This the first I've heard of the battery thermal indicator, and the derating of the power so quickly. If there is way to turn off the actual regen, you might try that since it moves the braking heat into the battery, inverter, and motors. (Some EVs just move the regen to the brake pedal when you turn it down or off so it does nothing). But I don't think it will help as much in the Model 3P as some EVs. The Model 3 Performance doesn't have the massive regen we see in the I-Pace. At 120 mph, it's like dropping a chute when you lift (200 kW?)

Yeah, thanks for that video ... that was a lot of fun. What's up with the battery going from green to red in just one lap tho? Wonder what Tesla would say about that?

Nice!
