The other problem is the momentum caused by the sloshing fuel (if around 1/2 full) upset's the weight transfer a little as it is delayed weight transfer. Only way I see around that is a custom fuel tank with lots of baffles, which would help the fuel pick up issue as well.
Here's another data point... fuel cut at

3-4 bars away from a full tank
4-5 seconds in 1.0G right hand turn

Need to turn this into a calculation for how big to drill the holes in the "can"... what is the flow rate of gasoline through various size holes... what is the flow rate of fuel at full throttle ? should be simple math once we figure this stuff out
