Whereas fuel starvation you lose all throttle regardless of RPM. It can be for just a moment, or it can be so severe that it last a few seconds... if it last a few seconds, you have a very good chance that the motor will turn off all together, which has also happened to me on the track

hmm.... i'm not sure now. from what you're describing, it now sounds more like limp mode, since it only does it above about 5k rpm. but the weird thing is that my temps are only around 220 (cooled back down from about 280+ in a previous session). and it only does it if i'm "pushing" the car hard. (will not cut out if i gently roll on the throttle - in which case i can rev it all the way up to redline).
