Aside from power and battery heat issues, does the handling feel at home on a track, similar to the way the M5 feels?
Well yes and no.

Model X P100D besides performance motor it also has the biggest battery which resulted in the heaviest Tesla of all, at over 5500 pounds.

But because the battery is pretty much the chassis so it is low to the ground, which made it handle better than any 5500 pound car should, but no system is every going to disguise the weight.
