How much time do you figure 3 or 4 laps is? I'm being generous in saying 10 minutes. That's why I'm pointing out that in say, 10 minutes of track time the Model 3 will no longer be competitive with a M3 and you'll be in 4-cylinder Honda Accord territory until the car cools down.

There are some gas powered sports cars that can't do 3-4 laps on track either. Cars such as the Civic Type R, BMW 335i, Nissan 370Z.
In the end, you are using a car for something it's not designed to do - track. Very few cars do well at track.
The message here is do not buy a Model 3 for track use. I doubt 99.5% of Model 3 buyers ever go to a track. |

Lol at the inaccuracy of this post
