Short wheelbases can be a concern with a lot of power output, but having owned a 700whp car with a 94.5" wheelbase, I can comfortably say anyone that is a reasonably competent driver should be able to handle FI power levels in the Z. It's not nearly as big of an issue as it is often made out to be.
