That's insane. Then when you lay underneath your car and admire the bracing and stock design you will know. I still think bone stock I could take a z to the track and burn a few cars. Tracking is not so much about pushing the car to the limit as it is about smooth control through the entire movement of curves, straights. Accel and decel along with braking. It should be a ballet not a crump session. MHO drag racing is cool too but I don't think one setup will work for track and drag. My brother drags his 350 and its pretty much set up for drag. It's also two completely different driving styles and techniques.
The camaro 1LE is putting down track times similar to the $200k mercedes SLS AMG and it's $38,000. So on a track... Yeah the Z is being demolished by this. So is the mustang track pack.
