I will be the first to admit I didn't really feel connected to the road in the Z06 with MRC at first. However, it is much better in sport mode and you get used to the constant corrections pretty quickly. The rear does still feel like it is "floaty" when taking a curve with lots of loose stuff or that's very uneven, but you learn how to not over correct pretty quickly.

As for the paddle shifting, I think they just needed to get used to it. If you keep them slightly depressed (fingers resting on them with a little pressure) all the the time, then you remove the delay that comes for the travel distance. Then, if you are driving aggressively for 15-20 minutes the delay nearly disappears (especially on downshifts). It will never be as fast as leaving it in auto mode, but there is a big difference in response times between just tooling around and driving it hard.

Sometimes it just takes a while to learn how to drive a car the right way.
