This is where we came up with the whole discussion about how bad the Z's parking brake is. That was one of two areas where we lost the points that would have given us the win.

I thought that article was kinda bias when they rated the 370z. If you notice the points distribution, the Z got like 1 point out of 5 for braking and the only thing they mention about the braking system wasn't even that bad to deserve 1 point. Otherwise, I think the Nismo 370Z would have gotten 1st place as the ultimate drift car. Then again, I'm not trying to say I know for a fact that the Nismo 370z is a better stock drift car than the M3 or the Corvette Grand Touring, but I do think Road & Track kinda jacked the Nismo Z on the braking catagory for the points. Otherwise, the 370Z scored super well on all of the other catagories.
