At 125mph and the rear wing dragging the car back (my gti could hit 131 mph at the same point), the front end gets pretty light and twitchy. The GTI was the opposite, the rear would get light and twitchy and that's a lot more sketchy since turn 1 is typically 75 mph +.
Right on! I am there with my Z as well. Aero balancing can be tricky. There is thread I started that speaks to some things to consider. I was mostly focused on spring rates for coil overs with a big wang and a 5" front front splitter. I haven't driven the Z in almost two years so it is going to be fun! Hopefully she will be track ready in the next couple of months.
