Stock brakea not good for track. Get better discs and disable regen braking as this overheats battery.
@@mrmiliman thanks for the info 🙏
@@DezDriven I am looking forward to these changes to see if the overheating is solved.
@@RFMx10 Same here, I will definitely do a video & report back the difference they make 🙏
My ICE car would overheat with 116°F as well, even if it's track prepared...
It's crazy hot, you'll ruin your tires and brakes with such temp!
Never thought about regen causing heat… thanks for the info 👍🏽👍🏽
Best street car 😊🎉
best commute car?
Are you dumb? 😂
116* is absolutely the reason for this. Anything below 50* F you will lose charge before overheating at least that my experience with 2022 model 3 performance
@@carter_longcor thank you for the input. Really hoping after making brake upgrades, lowering regen & coming back during winter months the battery doesn’t overheat so quickly 🙏
Model 3 just terrible 😢
Carter is a fool. Dont listen to him
Hell ya ! Finally, somebody actually wailing on their model3 P mercilessly! I’ve had my 2022 M3 P for 2 yrs 50,000 miles , been through 3 sets of tires. Only 6% battery degradation . And I beat on it daily like a rental. Zero issues whatsoever. The only repair was when I was in track mode, and I slid off the track . scraped the stock plastic skid plate and swaybar mounting bracket on the ground . No big deal . You should upgrade to a much larger radiator cooler. I assume you have regen off in track mode too , help keep it cool. If you’re just doing drag races, a nice warm battery is actually good. So don’t put it in track mode if you’re going to do drag races because the battery cooler will kick on. 110°F is probably the best drag race temperature for the battery. so either wait till summertime or trick your car into thinking it has to get ready for supercharging so it warms the battery up.
@@Shabobidhuffy epic!! I love that you are driving
Hard and minimal issue!! thanks for the information ℹ️ I appreciate it 🙏
Dang that’s awesome. I have a 22M3P with 29k miles with 9% battery degradation 😢
Good shit man ! Still trying to decided on a long range or P .. but after seeing this I’m kind of bummed
Ooof... I wanted to get one of these; I'll ponder it a bit longer before deciding to make the purchase.
This is still a great all around car especially for the price, but yes the overheating after a couple laps is definitely a down side.
@@DezDriven I have a 2019 RWD model, I'm not in a rush, maybe they'll fix this later on?
Get the Ioniq 5n
Congratulations for your work! Keep it up.
Saw one on the highway today while test driving one, the rear end of this car is so beautiful and miles better than the previous one
I 100% agree, I love the new exterior and interior upgrades on 2024!!
damn good driving bro. update us about this issue asap. i might have to put off ordering mine until i do some more research about this.
@@4hmed-2jz thank you 🙏 I will for sure make a follow up video with the upgrades to see how much they help. Praying it’s a significant amount and I can get at least 5 solid laps in 🙏🙏
I think it's less a car issue and more a "it's hot as balls everywhere in the US right now" issue...
@@theElemDragon definitely agree it’s been insanely hot. I will be back at the track with the M3P once it cools down and I make some upgrades. Hoping consistent hot laps in.
@@DezDriven I'm actually picking my Model 3 performance up on Wednesday. Sucks that they're calling for rain. 🫤
@@DezDriven Definitely invest in good brakes and turn regen to 0 if you want to maximize battery endurance
A performance car that has very limited Performance. If this would be an Audi or a Bimmer, everyone would hate it, but yeah its american, so its immune to valid criticism.
I have my 2024 M3P but haven't taken it to a track yet but this is concerning! Even in high temps, overheating after less than one full lap is not good. Hopefully Tesla can adjust the cooling via software to fix?
@@mikeyc8139 congrats on the new car Mikey 🙌 That would be amazing if that happens!! Here are the tips I learned so far from the Tesla community
- Enabled Track mode to cool battery right after charging
- Upgrade Brake Fluid
- Upgrade Brake Pads
- Upgrade Brake Lines
- Adjust Regen to 50% or lower depending on brake set up and skill level as Regen heats up the battery
@@DezDriveny do a upgrade when it’s meant to be driven track my 00 ek civic can keep up
@2mspeedek your stock Civic can do 0-60 in 2.9 and hit 165Mph?
STFU, 🤡
I had overheating in UK but at c. 68F
@@RSEV I’m sorry to hear that for sure. how many laps did you get at 68F?
@@DezDrivenI’ve taken mine around Castle Combe circuit in the UK. Out lap plus 2 fliers was fine. A 3rd flying lap had battery overheat at the end. The brake overheat message came up a lot, but with no loss of braking performance. Pedal only went a little soft at the end of my final run, when I hadn’t allowed the car to fully cool between runs. Since I only compete in sprints and hill climbs, normally equivalent to no more than 2 laps (3.5 miles) the overheating isn’t a major issue to me. By the way, saw a recent article that suggests it may not be overheating but a limit on battery discharge over a certain time period.
@@DezDriven on a 2.3 mile circuit I would get overheat on lap 3-4 with severely restricted power.
Brake overheat initially but actually they improved.
Misha has just released a video from trying one on Nurburgring and that video includes telemetry on battery temp…. Showing restrictions before it had even reached 50c battery pack temp!
@@RSEV glad to hear they improved after a while, & I saw that video of Misha, great video and I had a similar experience
Good information...
my SRT4 has no issues in those types of Temps...... Hell even my 2017 Bolt has no issues
🤡
This is very insightful. It's unfortunate Tesla made zero changes to the brakes or battery cooling. Especially with 2024 pulling more power from the battery pack.
New sub here, nice!
@@theR0ck Thank You 🙏 I appreciate the support.
so basically all the same problems still
Worse than before. The european ones are even worse.
Feel free to reach out to us for some brake upgrades.
🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝
Why is everyone expecting with 50000+ $ to buy a very fast car + no servicing + money efficient + family vehicle+ monster on the track!! Let’s be reasonable
An M3 will do all this at a similar cost. Yeah it probably won't be cheap to maintain, but if you don't track it, it'll be similar to a model 3P.
@@neviljay8274 An m3 costs 20 grand at least more than the m3p, and in a period of 5+ years it with consume a m3p in gas , oil , services , brakes e.t.c
@@kyriakoskyriakou8396well look at the interior of a bmw m3 and compare that to a tesla lmao. Bmw has better seats, better quality, actually has a gauge cluster screen and a heads up display, more HP, higher top speed,faster,etc.. u get what u pay for. Yall people act like their isn't a reason cars come with bigger price tags. U pay for what u get.
@@kyriakoskyriakou8396the Bmw M3 also has WAY more potential for any kind of racing.
Three TH-camrs all had same problem overheating. Flawed car 🚘
Wow! That is intense!
@@Pat_Singh I’m hoping I can get this figured out ASAP 🪫 🙏
Ayee this one blew up nice dude
How
Did the battery overheat or the brakes? 116 is pretty hot, but you’d think that would one covered in a performance model. Great video!
Both.
There is just no way to cool the pack enough. With the AC you can't get rid of the heat when it is around 100F outside. Maybe if you want some fast laps, people are gonna need some ice on the heat exchanger right before the hot laps. At 116F the pack is just hot enough from normal driving. Or maybe just even standing still.
You need to upgrade the brakes and turn off regen.
미완성차를 퍼포먼스라고 속여 판거네
I thought Tesla upgraded the brakes on the new model 3p? It’s still a problem? 😭 that car needs better aero for the brakes badly. Tesla keeps slapping huge hp numbers on there cars but not focusing anything on brake performance. Ioniq 5n has nearly the same brake rotor size with more weight, and it doesn’t even overheat, Tesla brakes can be fine I believe stock, if it had better cooling along it
Tesla upgraded the new M3P for street use. For serious track use you'd need aftermarket brakes.
Tesla is not a automaker.
They sell dreams.. 😅
I was there ! lol good driving !!
@@ernie3537 OMG!!! Such a hot day!! I couldn’t believe how hot it was. This was my first track day with this car and I didn’t get much seat time with overheating but I promise we’ll get better 🙏 I will definitely be back to Buttonwillow once it’s cooler out & will incorporate all the tips I learned from the community
Nice job pushing the car! Wow brake cooling looks like a big issue. On that second try was it the brakes or battery overheating? I’m guessing brakes since the battery looked in the normal range on screen but wanted to check
@@officialmichaeltan Hi Micheal, the first thing that always comes up is the brakes overheating. As you keep pushing more after that the battery overheats and car fully loses power. I wanted to ask you when you were on track, was your REGEN set to 100% I’m now learning we want regen set as low as possible (NOOB MISTAKE on my end)
yeah mine was set to 100 since I wasn’t overheating yet (I wasn’t pushing as hard as you). Interesting though I did run lots of laps on the other hand (6-8 per session). it was slightly cooler that day for me 97-100. Did you leave track mode on between the sessions for cooling the battery? Also I didn’t test out the brakes very much on my day. The brakes can at least be modded, if the battery is an issue that would be bad.
@@officialmichaeltan I am learning some helpful tips from the Tesla community and updated on the description to help others out. I will make sure to do these upgrades before the next track day.
TIPS I learned so far from the community
- Enabled Track mode to cool battery right after charging
- Upgrade Brake Fluid
- Upgrade Brake Pads
- Upgrade Lines
- Adjust Regen to 50% or lower
Brakes show as overheating but don’t lose any performance.
@@davebway6371 they lose everything not just performance, they literally get fried after a few minutes. That's a serious safety issue
What track settings were you using? Any Re-gen? I’ve got a China built one with the LG battery. They sell the car in Australia as a M3P with track mode so it should be built for purpose under our consumer laws. If I can get decent laps out of the car it’s going to be an interesting conversation. Ioniq 5 N gives 20mins of track time so fingers crossed the Tesla can deliver.
@@JonNewell Hi John,
These are the settings I had on.
TRACK MODE ENABLED
- Handling Balance NEUTRAL
- Stability Assist MINIMAL
- Regenerative Braking 100%
- Post Drive Cooling ENABLED
@@DezDriven Thank you, wow, that’s not good that it overheated so quickly. Thanks for the info.
yeah maybe 107F is not the optimal temp lol
These stock brakes only OK for drag racing 😂
Still not a Performance car despite what Tesla tries to call it. The european ones with LG batteries are even worse, but its just a commuter car anyway.
Overheating of battery will be fixed with software update. Get track pads or get off the track. Turn the brake overheat message off if the pedal is not soft. 100F? C’mon.
Very disappointed. I have my order since may 2. I don’t know what to do ? Model S normal range ?
@@CDAdolfoGonzalez I am going to upgrade the brakes/lines/fluid and adjust regen to 50% and try the tips I learned from everyone. It’s an amazing car, but on track it just overheats quickly. I will definitely do another video after the upgrades 👊
@@DezDriven please 🙏 do soon 🔜 I have time to change my order.
On the same boat test drove both and now after seeing this I’m in a stump between long range or P
no regeneration !!!
Tesla should fix this overheating issues by OTA .
What a piece of JUNK! How can Tesla even pretend that this is a performance version of the Model 3. Hyundai can do better, why can’t Tesla!
@@joebullwinkle5099 I was disappointed with the 100% stock performance as well but I’m hoping the brake upgrades and lowering Regenerative braking make a difference. I’ll definitely report my findings
@@DezDriven Please don't take this as a personal insult. I'm mightily pissed at Tesla for a vehicle that has a "Track Mode" and yet is essentially worthless for anyone with even basic trackday skills. Other reviewers report the same issues, brakes cook after 3-4 corner and the battery soon after that.
@@joebullwinkle5099no insult taken, I respect everyone’s input. I was really hoping the 2024 M3P would be better on track as well (stock) … Hopefully with some upgrades I’ll be able to have back to back hot laps & put down some decent times 🙌
Well, it is clear that it is an street performance not a track performance. It's just not an ioniq 5N
Ioniq 5N hasn't been tested at these temperatures. Jumping the gun, are you?
Not for track, its a one trick pony, only good for drag 0-60
Nah, it can handle corners due to lower centre of gravity. Keep coping.
get a white model 3 atleast , attracts less heat
it is a red light racer not a track day racer LOOOOOL.
You need 5n.
Anyone surprised by the overheating?
It wasn't built for track purpose u shud consider the s plaid
S Plaid suffers from similar problems and is even heavier. Nope.
@@Euromasterrace5000 that a big fat lie
@@chiboyife5456 sure, just need to watch Mishas Ring lap. Couldnt overtake a stock 300hp Cayman after one lap. Cope
2.2 ton track car? Hahahaha
@@chiboyife5456Only Teslafans lie.
GET BBK AND TURN OFF REGEN!!!!!
LG or Panasonic cells?
Did you put DOT4 brake fluid in it? Are you fluid in your acceleration or are you punching it out of the corners and apexes? I know you aren't an expert track driver obviously but you could be smoother.
Hard braking and acceleration are part of track driving and the car needs to be able to handle it. It’s hard to get smoother when the car doesn’t last long enough for you to get any seat time. Yesterday was brutally hot and most cars weren’t performing well by the afternoon when it was 110 and above but it should have been able to handle at least the first couple sessions in the morning.
@@ChosenMJ I wanted to get the car out there 100% stock to get a baseline. Definitely will be upgrading brake fluid/ brakes / lines. & good call I will definitely concentrate on being smoother. This was my first time out with this car and the only hot lap I completed for the day. I appreciate the advice.
@@KBTV47 I am with you 100% This was my first time with this car on track & it definitely a lot different than the M3 or Corvette. I was hoping to get more seat time but I had to come off track every time the car went into limp mode. I will make these brake upgrades and adjust regen & hopefully can get a couple hot laps out there . I appreciate you
@@KBTV47 Yes I get that but my point is/was learn the car first. Driving at six or seven tenths will give you a fairly solid baseline to work off of instead of balls to the wall driving. You tend to drive smoother once you understand where to setup the car around the track. Smoother driving and moderate inputs can reduce the stress that’s placed on the car. At least that’s what I was taught. Anyway carry on.
@@DezDriven Yeah there is only so much you can learn from a lap or two. After the slow lap around the track I usually go to 6, 7 and 8 tenths to get the fluids and tire temps up before letting loose. By then the car is settled somewhat and you can go faster without having to fight the car.
This car is not a track car, even with the performance name in it.
Get a Hyundai Ioniq 5 N and it will last without overheating the brakes or the battery or the motors.
Buy Renault zoe
Did you sell the m3 comp bro? How you liking the model 3 performance? How do they compare? Especially on the ride and handling?
@@THExKINGxKINGx Hi There, no I didn’t sell the M3 Comp, I still have it. I absolutely LOVE that car. I will for sure do a video very soon comparing the two cars over the next couple weeks. So far the Model 3 performance has been good. I love all the upgrades from the previous version especially the seats. I am impressed how quick it is in a straight line and handling is pretty good. The only thing that’s mind blowing to me is how quickly the battery overheats on track. I will for sure do another video after I make some upgrades to the car to see how much they help.
@@DezDriven Thanks so much man I turned on post notifications so I’ll see it whenever you post it! I was trying to order a 2024 m3 competition but the window just closed and it would have to be a 2025 which I didn’t like. I will get the M3 competition as well when I find the right spec. Want the bucket seats, dravit grey, and Fiona red interior. I couldn’t find it anywhere in the nation. Just ordered my model 3 performance today! Will likely sell my 2021 M3P down the road and just keep the 2024 model 3 performance until the next updated version comes out. Can’t find a better daily than this one. Likely will have the M3 comp as my weekend car. Perfect garage.
@@THExKINGxKINGx I agree!!! You will love that garage for sure 💯💯 congrats on the new car 🙌
get an ioniq 5N
seems that the Hyundai is a better choice as a track car....and worse for just about everything else.
@@dangrass nah it is way better as a performance car but it also has more space inside, which makes it more practical to transport stuff. The only area where it is lagging behind is the range, however, thanks to its 800V system you can charge it up in 19min from 10-80% so it is less of an issue as it seems. Ioniq 5N clearly wins
@@dangrassmore fun to drive, more space, charges faster, better all around performer, built better too. Tesla obviously cheaper and more relaxing to drive.
@@dangrass how is it worse in every other aspect. Yes charging and range is not as great but if you charge at home it's not a problem, not to mention the space and hatchback practicality is much better choice for daily driving especially if you have family
@@dangrassbetter charging, more space, performs better than the Tesla..but yeah, no fartapps and dog mode. Definitely way worse.
No Sporty ev like Ionic 5N 😅
Why are Tesla’s soulless?
because they don't make enough noise?
@@dangrass noise is one aspect for sure … better to say, lack of engagement. It’s a visceral combination of feeling that the ICE gives you that is missing in the soulless ev. Unless you have experienced it, it’s hard to explain. Going fast isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, especially when it’s your only trick.
They are very dull to drive, but not every EV is like that.
@@Euromasterrace5000 I test drive the Taycan S Turbo a 180k car … and it was pure boredom. Its was a soulless Porsche.
I seen another video with the same results on TH-cam. Not good!!!
@@SMASHMURDER I just saw the other video right now too overheating in just 1 lap at Buttonwillow. Hoping future upgrades help 🙏
You should watch some vids of Euro Model 3s with the LG battery. They overheat even faster.
Crazy they had the nerve to call this a performance model. I guess at tesla all they do is lie about 0-60 times by using rollout and act like thats all that performance means. Performance= top speed, handling, and braking. Its always meant that.
Thats how Tesla marketing works. Overpromise, let the investors do 0-60 races all the time and be quiet about any issue.
@@dantethomas7964 tesla people a rare species. They truly aren't car people at all.
@@G82Watts they hate cars. They just love Tesla. They hate other EVs too
Would never happen in my stealth 2019 model 3 performance compressor overclock! 😂
Heat pump is a joke!
Expensive junk!
This is why I'm not replacing my 2020 yet
Yours is dated junk bud!
Should have gotten I5N
