Mike,
I think the your problem is that you have missed that mkisofs makes a cd/dvd image from the contents of one or more directories. I could be wrong, but my assuption is based on that test.tar.gz more looks like it is a file.
If what you want is a dvd that just contains the one file test.tar.gz then create a subdirectory and move it there and give the subdirectory as input to mkisofs, e.g.
mkdir subdir mv test.tar.gz subdir mkisofs -r subdir | dvdrecord -dao -v fs=6m speed=2 dev=0,0 -
if what you want is actually a dvd containing what is inside the archive you would instead do something like
mkdir subdir; cd subdir tar zxvf ../test.tar.gz cd .. mkisofs -r subdir | dvdrecord -dao -v fs=6m speed=2 dev=0,0 -
If you have enough free disk space it can be a good idea to test the output of mkisofs before creating coasters until you are comfortable with it. E.g.
mkisofs -r subdir -o dvdimage.iso mount -o loop dvdimage.iso /mnt ls -l /mnt
if that looks OK you just go on to umount /mnt dvdrecord -dao -v fs=6m speed=2 dev=0,0 dvdimage.iso

I'm not that familiar with DVD burning, but here is what I tried to make myself a dvd using a Verbatim dvd-rw disc with both the pioneer and lg writers I get an error:
Track 01: 0 MB written.dvdrecord: Input/output error. write_g1: scsi
sendcmd: no error
I get a similar error with cdrecord-prodvd too.
Any help would be appreciated, I have shortened the output for brevity.
