My brother had an MK Indy with the 919 Carb Fireblade Engine, I have a 87 911 3.2. They were about even to about 80-90mph and then the 911 would continue accelerating whereas the MK would slowly creep towards 100+ mph.

The MK has an inherent design issue with the steering which is easily sorted but requires altering the front arms of the mounting points. His and everyone I have driven always felt unsafe like it was going to kill you.

He gave up in the end and bought a caravan.
