When I was racing my 914-6 I did 6 or 8 races in Mexico on street circuits and in the same class I was in there were always 3 or 4 or those guys. They showed pretty good cornering but terrible braking as they would see fading after several laps of being pushed hard. I usually qualified ahead of them but down there the races use standing starts and they can rev the engines to the redline and pop the clutch and then it took me some laps to get caught back up and pass them. You can't do 7000RPM standing starts with a 901 gear box!
Anyways they never broke or wrecked which is a good selling point.
