I took my 08 BMW 535i sedan, despite its size I felt it did great, PB 2:15.
Going back again this upcoming month hoping to beat that time!

edit/update: i can't tell from the video if this car had carbon fiber panels, but these are available.

Officially 1:54 on 200 treadwear tires, 1:53 on slicks with low battery.
SpeedKing 2w ago @RobY
Wrong it did 1.54.6 on Pirelli Slicks 285/645-18 and 1:57.9 on 305/30ZR19 Nitto NT01 radials.

The new setup with street tires beat the old time with slicks. Also used a new driver that never drove a Tesla before.

biggest problem is that they overheat very easily since they are built with minimum cooling, maximum aero efficiency. The Model 3 did a lot of solve this though. But for those "hypercar" electric cars, I find it mind boggling stupid. The Lotus 2000hp car, has something like a 70kwh battery. That would be just some 2 minutes and 48s of full throttle. It would have to pace itself in order to finish a nurburgring lap, or a couple laps of Spa. So much for having the ultimate hypercar that can "set lap records" as Lotus says. A track car is a car that you can pound out laps on a race track and learn how to drive faster, enjoy speeds that you can't on the road. What's the point of a "track car" that does 1 lap?

Yep cooling the batteries has been the most important focus in the last few years and no one knows that better than Mate Rimac of RimacAutomobili who has said that battery technology has barely progressed in the last 10 years contrary to a number of misleading claims. What's more he doesn't think that there will be significant improvement over the next 4 to 5 years either. Rimac claims that new liquid-cooled thermal management systems mean that the Concept 2 should be capable of two full laps of the Nürburgring at full power “with negligible drop in performance”.
That remains to be seen however it's possible that the Lotus Evija may be able to complete a full lap at the Nurb but i suspect they will have to limit its top speed in the straights just like the Volk ID.R was limited to approx 260 km/h or they won't be able to complete the lap. EV Hypercars have their limitations unlike ICE hypercars

Ummm. Can I take this spot. My car won't be stock in the future, so this is the only legitimate time.

Which car is faster?
Some of cars use r-compound(cup2) in their stock cars. Some are not

The Car & Driver article says they used Configuration #25 right in the article.
What does it take submit and lap time? I was just at this track on Friday and some of the guys were getting faster times in stock street cars. Can I send in a link to a video?

There seems to be some confusion as to what constitutes configuration 13 here.
This.

Isn't this.
