It can happen in any high-G left turn. On the track, I get it repeatedly starting with 17 gallons of fuel. Thankfully I finally have an RRP!

When driving on the street, be mindful of sharp right turns (banked or otherwise), and try to stay above half a tank. Also, if you experience fuel starvation, my advice would be *not* to pull over and shut the engine off, but instead to straighten the car out and try to get some fuel sloshed back over to the pump. I've encountered it literally hundreds of times on the track, but never had the engine shut off or be stranded.
