I mean. What are you trying to say?Do we know how different the pre-production cars are from series production that Porsche tests on the ‘Ring? Do the Tesla fans know that Porsche has testing on the ‘Ring as standard practice for decades with almost every car line they produce? I feel like their record setting lap got taken as a personal affront to Tesla fans when it’s just a normal part of their testing regimen, as evidenced by the countless videos we’ve seen and their previous solo runs with many other cars.
I think so https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a29088855/porsche-taycan-turbo-s-nurburgring-lap-time/OH OH MYYYYYYY!
Translation?? Twenty (20) seconds faster?
Porsche E-Board, are you watching?

Porsche will have the official record once they post an official time. Currently, that is not the case. And slapping Cup 2 R tires on the Taycan will probably be good for a ~10 second improvement, which only halves the difference.This attempt states that it can't be done with a standard Model S P100DL and that, Porsche, is a good show.
Tesla has to modify a car to be even competitive.
Besides, Porsche can do it again on the same tires as this Model S Plaid and let's see what that brings...
All in all, Porsche has the record for at least a year.
Officially.
