You can also use left foot braking if you don't have a line lock to give you a longer burnout at the track to warm up those tires. But, you have to be quick on your feet with a six speed. ;-)
If im not mistaken, the Z has a relay that shuts down the the throttle to 30% when the brakes depressed. Ive tried it and my car just looses RPMs until i stall or let off the gas (and thats in dirt).
I will occasionally use the left foot to brake while applying throttle with the right foot when I need control at low speeds on a truck with an automatic transmission. In this method, the throttle application is constant and the approach to the "target" is controlled with the brake. Left foot braking is also usefull for a full out high stall launch on an auto from a dead start on a car without all those electric cutoff gizmos.
