Gas Pedal Delay

I've had no real bad experiences so far.

Twice on a hard right from a dead stop, I felt it cut power very similarly.

The first time it was after rain and about 60 degrees. I caught the VDC light flashing, though I did not feel any real wheelspin.

The 2nd time it was dry, but about 50 degrees out. I didn't see the VDC light, but it felt the same (I had 3/4 tank of gas so it wasn't fuel starvation) and I was definitely not being particularly gentle with the throttle so, I dunno, maybe I just missed the VDC flashing.

Since I've been done with break-in I've driven the car for a good hour or so and then tromped it pretty good and it feels about the same butt-dyno wise as my old HR 350Z, and it seems to get up and move just fine even when I've been in traffic and the oil is up to 220 degrees.

So overall I'd say I'm not seeing the problem, I mean, unless you guys are grossly exaggerating how slow the car is when this happens... I mean, if it feels "maybe a little slower" then perhaps I just don't notice it but if it should feel "a lot slower" then I definitely have not had the issue.
