I cannot speak for the 3.0 Z4C; however, I have tracked a 2011 G37S (6MT, LSD with Akebono Brakes and Mobile-1 Synthetic) which is substantially similar to the 350Z. I had it out two times both in summer weather and 85F+ temperatures.
While it performed well, it hit LIMP mode towards the end of the first session then progressively quicker as the day went on. Considering the 350Z uses much of the same components, my opinion is that you will run into similar issues. Maybe the my350Z forum can provide more details, but you can likely get an inexpensive external oil cooler to mitigate the problem.
Hope this helps!
