edit: I ended up making these changes myself and published this as per below. Please feel free to double-check/proofread and delete this topic.
I think we should change the Tesla Model 3 Performance lap time to the lap performed by L'argus (video) as it is more accurate and from a more reliable source. This would change the lap time from a ~9:00 which is what is currently listed (private driver) to an ~8:12 (L'argus).
For the Tesla Model 3 Performance, the current article lists a 9:00 Bridge-to-Gantry (BTG) time citing a YouTube video under a private driver uploaded by "Jay in Shanghai." L'argus—a French magazine specializing in automobile services and journalism—has an ~8:12 BTG time with a stock vehicle under a YouTube video which is also featured in an article. In the description of the YouTube video they claim the car they're testing is "100% stock."
I would think the L'argus source is not only more reliable considering it was done by media (versus the listed 9:00 private individual/driver time), but may be more indicative of a stock M3P's actual Nürburgring BTG times considering that a modified M3P time under slightly wet conditions is 7:44 in this video by Unplugged Performance (modification details in video description).
That said, I have no idea how the original 9:00 timing written in the Wiki article came about, whether it came from a timing box or was just timed through the video since I didn't see anything about a 9:00 time in the video's description. I suspect the time was from analyzing the video, as the 9:00 time does seem equivalent if timed through the video. If that is the case, then some frame-by-frame times from the L'argus video in total elapsed seconds is
These times were derived by looking at times of the frame within the video, where the frame depicts the white line signifying Bridge/Gantry boundary to be under either the front bumper or front wheels for more conservative timings. Dakilaledesma (talk) 04:13, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
