370z to STU proposal

I wrote my letter saying I don't want the 370Z in STU as I feel my 350Z would be obsolete.
I've talked to quite a few people that think it would be an ok move and might not make the 350 obsolete. They say the 370Z has fuel issues and almost always has to run a full tank which adds weight, not sure if true? It's also wider track in the rear so can't squeeze through a slalom or feature quite like a 350. I still don't know if that makes up for the potential 30whp/30wtq it would have over a 350.

I don't think the 63lbs would be the be all end all either. Of course the dual pump isn't legal in auto-x STU trim so it sounds like they would need to run that extra weight almost all of the time.
I did co-drive a BS 370Z of a friends and hit a lot of cones with the rear of the car. I'm not sure how much wider the car is than a 350Z but I hit many more with the rear of his 370 versus my 350.

The torque numbers peak might only be 15ftlb but I bet there would be areas under the curer where the overlays are closer to 30ftlb.
