Modified Tesla Model 3 Sets Nürburgring Lap Record! OR HAVE WE BEEN FOOLED AGAIN?!

Once again claims have been made and our trusted journalists have taken the bait, shared the news as fact and the internet has eaten it UP!!!!

Let's talk about how this modified Model 3 is 25 seconds slower than claimed, how it violates Nürburgring regulations, discredits an industry and is embarrassing for those who made and shared these claims.

It is also important to note that Tesla themselves are far removed from this. They are simply the manufacturer of the stock car and have no further connection to this story.
Just some examples of a few articles for you guys:
