Does the traction control light blink?

When you shift from first to second in a turn and the RPMs are too low, the Z will sense the car "slipping" and activate the traction control. The "sluggish" feeling could possibly be the traction control slowing down the spin of your wheels.

You can try shifting at a higher RPM and don't shift in the middle of a turn.
