They were difficult because of the very non-linear power delivery, plus turbo "lag" when you wanted power. Power came on very late. If you've driven 911-based racers you know never to trail brake...and always "go-in-slow-go-out-fast" in the corners. Some later versions of the 935 also used a spool in lieu of a proper differential...so this allowed the car to put down power in corners at speed....but also made the car impossible to steer at very slow corners. The car wanted to simply go straight.....
A very difficult car to drive fast and predictably...my hat's off to those who did.
