The GT is no slouch in anyway, but I am still not so confident in it's "improved" suspension setup.
Laguna Seca? Are you serious? The Z would not stand a chance against the 2011 GT - You must not have been @ Seca much.

Tsukuba - would be close between the two perhaps but have you looked @ seca? there are some serious 80 -> 110 sprints where we will loose a LOT of time to the stang. A roughly average speed of about 80 mph (for the track) will not help us at all...

You are comparing different animals - what the stang looses in the turns it will MORE than make up for in the straights.
