There are other reasons a car could lean out too. I've had mine lean out during mild spirited driving on all season tires with half a tank of gas. I've known about the fuel starvation issue but the false information I've read on it seems to think that can only happen when you're using summer tires on a track with enough g-force to starve the pump.

Luckily my **** didn't blow up but my tuner was not happy with me when he saw the log.
