I think the issue is that this car has some serious grip for a stock car combined w/ relatively low hp/torque. Therefore w/ that combo it takes a lot more to break the car loose. So I'm thinking inexperienced dudes are turning the VDC off to get some wheel spin and are pushing the car beyond their limits.

For example, my previous car was a 420 rwhp Supra. It was so easy to get the wheels to spin at low RPM and once the tires broke loose they would continue to spin until I changed something (throttle input, shifting, etc). That made it extremely predictable. With the Z, I have to really try to get the wheels to spin and that's usually at high RPM w/ the car pretty unsettled.

I dunno I could be full of complete ****, but it's just a theory.
