The brakes on the 370Z do very poorly if the front brakes overheat. It will usually be ok for 4-5 60-0 stops and then the problems start to set in. For long track auto-x where we see a lot of runs per session I've taken to carefully (and gradually) spraying the brakes down with water after each run to ensure reliable performance. It seems as though that could have been the case in their testing if it was driven pretty hard.
