If you drive the same way you do when its dry when its wet - VDC on or off you will pay for it...

Slamming on the brakes mid-corner is going to upset just about any car. The Z has an incredible amount of traction in the dry, so yes, if you try to drive the same way in the wet you are going to get a surprise. However if you drive sanely you won't have any trouble.
