And if someone doesn't know when they are approaching the limit, then what happens?
And when they don't know what to do because they are blasting at crazy speeds and sliding through a corner as they find out the limit then what?
I didn't say a beginner should be worrying about lap times. A beginner should be thoughtful, not worried, about tracking accurate apex lines SMOOTHLY.
Slippery tires interfered with that objective when I was a beginner.

With my sticky tires when I approached the limit all 4 tires squeeled. What happened ? The sound notified me of the limit, then I either slowed to regain more traction or pushed harder to learn that speed was scrubbed off.
There was no spin out off the track like with slippery tires.

As in my original post - FOR ME I learned faster with sticky tires.
