These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi has anyone done a real comparison using AO 50s (mediums)  then tried slicks (soft or mediums)  in track sprints?( average 3 timed laps) Early 911 G series. Cheers

POST 2Original post

Hi I don’t have a comparison for a G series but in a 996 GT3 with A050 softs vs a 996 cup car on slicks the time difference is about 3-4 seconds per lap. Generally a slick will be 2-3 seconds per lap quicker at a minimum (depending on the layout).

POST 3Original post

Slicks every time.  The trick is to get them to temp which in most cases will be on the 3rd lap (including outlap) so you need to work them properly. As Spiller says, bank on 3-4 seconds a lap at least but its all pretty set up sensitive.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the feedback,, Any suggestions re slicks brands compounds ? 15x 9 and 11” sprint racing.? cheers

POST 5Original post

Would also be interested in any feed back on this question as I currently run Michelin TB5  15x9 and 15x11 with no comparison . One thing I will comment on is the TB5 work real well in my opinion.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
