Nürburgring Nordschleife - @Ringfreaks Tesla Model 3 P (fix cam)

A lap with @Ringfreaks Tesla Model 3 Performance.
Due to a yellow flag the action starts at 3:00.
The car has:
- Brembo big brake kit
- Yokohama AD09R tires on BBS wheels
- KW suspensions
- Full cage
- Race bucket seats
Weight is 1750kg, power is 520hp.
This was my first and only lap with the car and I'm definitely not a professional driver, but: the car masks it's weight very well, probably thanks to it's very low center of gravity; the steering is quick, has a good weight but doesn't have much feel. The power is very good between 0 and 180km/h, after 180 you can't really feel the 520hp. Throttle modulation is absolutly fantastic when you learn to be very gentle with the pedal. Handling is very nice thanks to the KW suspensions, brakes are fantastic (regen braking is deactivated)

When you stepped on it out the gate my first thought was "Wow... the sound of that motor whine.... hopefully mine will sound like that when i get it!" Then I realized the car is gutted. Mine won't sound QUITE like that. lol Though I DID order the 2024 Model 3 Performance with the more powerful rear motor, so.... maybe? yeah, probably not.

You can remove the rear seat (just the part you sit on, not the back rest) with just 2 clips and a few connectors. With that change alone you could hear the whine quite a lot.

Great lap! I was just a few days ago with my LR and managed to do a few laps around the 9 minutes, which felt quite good for my first time with the Model 3 on the Nordschleife(I've been with other cars there). I got no battery over heat warning(I feel that the downside of track mode is that the battery gets preheated) but I got half way a pretty big warning regarding break temperature(expected). I have some DS2500, metal break lines and Ravenol R325 to upgrade it, so hopefully next time it's a different story.

Good, hope you had fun! Yes good pads and fluid are a must for track driving on any car, you won't regret the upgrades 💪

As fast as it is, I'm still going back to petrol. But I kind of enjoyed it, for what it is. If you're into EVs only, I recommend it. (did 70.000 km so far)

Yeah for this type of driving a petrol engine would also be my first choice for now. But it was way more fun than expected 💪

Nice thanks for sharing and cool mods 👍💪 Is gravel I can hear during the lap or is the car making those sounds ?

@niclime172 9 күн бұрын

It's both, sometimes you can pick up some little rocks that other cars brought to the track and the car makes some noises (the main one being the passenger harness hitting the rollcage)

Great run and lines! M3LR with AB owner here, any reason why you disabled the regen? Other than initial bite feel it may actually save you 5-10% per lap. Also, I feel it cuts a bit of power when under 50% soc, is that the case with yours?

@niclime172 11 күн бұрын

@gonzorvf thank you! They explained to me that regen is deactivated to have better brakes control and to not have the car slow down by itself when lifting the "gas" pedal. Yes you can feel the power decrease depending on soc and temperature

@madmat28 10 күн бұрын

LRAB Ring driver here too. Turning regen off also gives you longer battery life before overheating the pack. Use scanmytesla to check pack temp, your power cuts maybe due to a hot battery. Regen ON usually means "yellow battery" at 'Hohe Acht' the latest.

@theElemDragon 8 күн бұрын

@@niclime172 Yeah, MUCH better brake control. More predictable to slow down, rather than taking your foot off the accelerator, car starts slowing down, hit the brakes to slow down faster, take your foot off the brake pedal, car continues to slow down quite rapidly, step on the accelerator.

@Tschacki_Quacki 3 күн бұрын

I imagine that people who race want to have consistent driving experience but regen braking is doing whatever depending on temps and SoC.

Its sad that even with yellow flag the battery got hot at the end

@niclime172 9 күн бұрын

Well track driving is demaning for the vehicle, it got a little hot just at the end, i wouldn't consider it that bad 😁 Also consider that sometimes, going really slow like in the yellow flag section it's actually worse for cooling because the airflow in the radiators is low
