Some here. 135 mph on the straight into hard braking for a 70 mph turn, lap after lap it felt solid as a rock. The quick steering ratio and short wheelbase do react very quickly to steering inputs at those speeds so you do need steady hands. The 740 in comparison is a boat, wheelbase is 21 inches longer and contributes significantly to high speed stability. Even compared to the 911 the Z has a quicker ratio and the ratio is fixed vs a variable ratio in the 911.
