Since there are some avid drivers of the course there possibly are a few that drive porsches who have used both the models concerned on the track after purchasing their cars.
Leading evidence: 'Use models concerned' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Run oem tires or r-comps' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

Suggestion
It would seem reasonable that maybe 25% of the avid ring drivers using both 911's have kept their logs of times.

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.

Hi, guys.
I'm writing about the 3.4 996 and have seen a quote of it being (according to Porsche) 8 seconds faster around the 'Ring 'than the previous model', presumably meaning a 993 C2.
Anyone got anything to back this up or disprove it?
Thanks.
yes looking forward to it!there seems to be alot of that going around,for instance an article in this months automobile magazine,giving 996s the thumbs up!good to see that,your article for next months issue?
993 posted 8:28
in 04' (so a 996 carrera S) posted 7:59
996 GT3 posted 8:03 though... so makes me wonder
all listed as "production vehicles"

maybe I cant read... check the link
The times might be in the Dec. '01 or April '02 edition of Excellence. In the article about the C4S, I believe they talk about the times of the C4S and compare them to a GT3, a TT and a C2. I'll try to remember to take a look when I get home tonight (unless someone happens to have access to them now).
It's probably on the web site from above, but here's the info from the 4/02 Excellence article:
GT2: 7 min 44 sec.
TT: 7min 56 sec.
C4S: 8 min 16 sec.
C2: 8 min 20 sec. (said that last year's, '01 I assume, has a time of 8 min. 24 sec.)
Hey John, yeah that would be a great time in a n/a 996.
Breaking the 8 minute barrier is really special, both for car and driver.
I drove it back in about '87 in my old BMW and had about 15 minutes, ha.
I look forward to seeing the results of your insights. I'm not certain of options in suspensions out of the factory but I am sure those features would make a big difference in times. Since there are some avid drivers of the course there possibly are a few that drive porsches who have used both the models concerned on the track after purchasing their cars. Those persons would have fresh from the factory times. Talking to the track administration could give you a list of persons good to talk to for this info. There could be a club or too around that gegend who could give insight also. It would seem reasonable that maybe 25% of the avid ring drivers using both 911's have kept their logs of times.
Have a good one John.
I wish the 'ring times would include more information. Even the professional published ones are short on info. What were the conditions that day? Was it running OEM tires or r-comps? Was the suspension modified? Was it lowered? Street alignment or race alignment? Was it stripped bare? Hauling around a couple hundred lbs of rollcage? Etc. Just seeing raw times means very little.
