Just be careful. The Z is a short wheelbase car with a fair amount of built in understeer, so when it starts to go it's usually going to go around quickly. You really need to be able to think ahead and predict how the car is going to react to your next control input.

Spearfish is right on. If you find yourself in a situation where you need to correct the car you need to be able to do it right away. If you find yourself chasing the steering you're cooked. Follow his advice and you'll be in good shape.
