Interesting

Did you have SRM turned on? I'm assuming not if the RPM's stayed around 6500.

Could have been a clutch slip, could also have been throttle lag or VDC. Did you notice the VDC light flash on or not? Remember, even if turned off VDC is still somewhat active. The Z has a bit of an electric throttle lag. Sometimes when I stomp the peddle, there's a good half second before the car reacts to the pedal. It's like the Z is going, "Really, f*cker?!" before responding.
