A GT3 racecar is also very far from their roadgoing counterparts.
If you look at bmw GT3 cars, everything is different.
The complete suspension system, and I dont mean shocks, I mean control arms, subframes everything. Sometimes they even get like dual wishbone suspension where the roadcar has a mcpherson strut, so very big differences.

And do you mean a full lap or a btg lap? (the performante record was a 'full' lap, but that dtm video is a (slow) bgt lap)
Most GT3 qualifying rounds are of course incl. the F1 track, but if you take that off, a gt3 car does about 6:35-6:40 (full lap) I estimate (in qualifying).
But a lot of experts think the performante lap was rigged
