You're playing with fire sir !!! Still no fuel starvation? EVERY single guy I ran into autox events, they all said the same thing,"yeah gotta keep the tank full or else fuel starvation." I haven't hit fuel starvation yet but I ALWAYS run full tank. My longer autox event drive (2 hours from my house), I stop 20 mile before autox venue and fill up.

Actually, I need to keep a track of how many events you do with 3/8th full tank until you hit the fuel starvation. Just for the sake of gather data. What year Z btw? Any video of your Z running at the event?


MIke STR: How do you cope with tire pressure increase? You simple check before event and run all day? I run 37F, 38R and sometimes I find myself running at 45-46 psi hot! Do you go out and check pressure/adjust before each run?
