I was cornering extremely hard in the "danger zone" of fuel level. I cant really talk speeds on the forum but I was topping out fourth coming out of the corners, you can do the math.....Im glad the fuel didnt get stuck on the left side of the tank and shut down on me!

If this does happen to you and you cannot get it started take out your jack and jack up the drivers side allowing the fuel to transfer back over to the other side. then away you go, at least in theory.
