David, when you tracked your car, was the issue:
1. It just didn't stop like a lighter car OR
2. The brake system could not dissipate the heat adequately resulting boiled fluid, melted caliper seals, etc.?
No. 1 is something you can deal with on track. Just a racing disadvantage for the car. No. 2 is a fundamental design flaw that PREVENTS you from racing/finishing races (ask me how I know).
If it is 2, I agree, the car should be avoided. If it is 1, I can live with that.

It takes a long time to stop compared to a lighter car, but seems like it should be able to stop quicker. The Z is pretty much my fun/weekend car and I still have to adjust my braking distance whenever I drive it. I have stock brakes with semi-metallic pads and stainless brake lines so it's not a full race setup. I've never really liked the pedal feel, but that may just be me.
