I set out with a budget of $5,000 to turn my '20 Tesla Model 3 Performance into in absolute track weapon!
We put it up against some seriously fast cars and drivers @ Summit Point Motorsports Park in Mach V Motorsport's Winter Track Cross Series to see just how competitive a less experienced driver in an modded M3P can be!
What are your thoughts on how EV's stack up against the traditionally fast gas powered vehicles in motorsports?
If you dig it, be sure to describe as we continue to push our M3P!

Definitely a cool addition to the channel. I'm just waiting for the sawzaw to come out and see another AWD cart grace us with its presence!

@scraplifegarage 2 года назад

Appreciate it! It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but I’d be willing to bet that’s because most of them haven’t driven one 😬

@redherring395 2 года назад

Looking forward to seeing future content on the Tesla, what you do to it and how it responds to your mods.

@scraplifegarage 2 года назад

I’m looking forward to it aswell! Thanks for tuning in!

Just came across this channel. Really great content. I have an M3P coming in a month and I’m interested in many of the same mods. Keep it up!

What a well made video! How do you not have a million subs?

@zeitgeist888 8 месяцев назад

Really like the Tesla content and appreciate the weighing of parts stock to aftermarket especially wheel/tire package and rotors since they are rotational and unsprung weight which makes the difference so much more than fixed sprung weight. Autocrossing since 95 and trackdays since 97 and the driving looked nice good job. Only one minor complaint. The camera work while walking and passing the pillars had a lot of sway and was disorienting to watch. Great stuff and nice to see the Tesla on track and improving.

@naughtypersian 2 года назад

This was very insightful, thank you for making this video! I was looking into getting the nt033rr in 18x9.5, did you use hub centric rings? I’ve been looking all over for ones that will fit the m3p rotors. I believe those einkei are 75mm center bore from what I’ve gathered.

@scraplifegarage 2 года назад

Thanks for watching! I did not use hubcentric rings. Maybe it’s stupidity or laziness but if never ran them in my life.

@stevencase243 2 года назад

@@scraplifegarage Not sure if it was said already, but with the rear brake caliper you can use a 9v battery to move the parking brake motor. just reverse polarity to change direction.

@scraplifegarage 2 года назад

@@stevencase243 I was aware of that, unfortunately being in such a time crunch I tried to use what I had handy (jumper wires and a milwaukee 12v battery) and when that was fighting me I just yanked the actuators and spun them with an allen key. I have that nice little jumper harness that uses the 9v on the way for next time!

@stevencase243 2 года назад

@@scraplifegarage The issues you were having with the Brake fluid is probably due to the fluid itself. Those of us tracking are using RBF660 or Endless RF650 for the higher boiling points. I personally use the Endless fluid and have no issues with boiling or it getting soft.

@scraplifegarage 2 года назад

@@stevencase243 Good to know! I'll give it a look for next time, I didn't anticipate getting the brakes THAT hot at a Track X, but that shut down did it for me

@mike63ful 2 года назад

Great show, which 18 inch wheels do you recommend for a DD m3p ? Subscribed!

@scraplifegarage 2 года назад

Honestly it just comes down to personal preference, as long as the barrel clears the brakes, it’s your choice as far as design and weight. I do like the enkei nt03rr for my daily wheels. Barrel clearance is the most important aspect, I tried 18x9.5 rpf1 and they didn’t clear. Thanks for watching!

Would you run the Weds setup and tires on the street? (275/40/18,18x8.5) Are the weds forged?

Great video! Where did you buy the Wedsport rims that where specifically made for model 3? If it’s not available, what is the spec of the rims so I can try to replicate your order? 🙂

@scraplifegarage 2 года назад

This set was part of a batch order made specifically for the model 3 so I didn’t.

9.5” wheel is better with 265 width tires. A052 is already wider than tires in the same size, 275 is too much will result in more side wall flex
