Fuel starvation is very real. For me it is a track issue primarily. I need to fill my tank after every 30 minutes on the track or I will get starvation by end of second session and I am still above half tank by two dots.

At Sears Point there is a right hand turn (Turn 2) preceded by a long sweeping left, that nails me every time at 3/4 tank. I once thought it was VDC but with it off it continued.

I can not remember ever experiencing starvation on the street but then again it might feel like VDC so I am unsure.

Cossie, you are driving your car the way it was meant to be driven. Of course the car was meant to have a better fuel system too.

Best of luck.
