Yes, I had fuel starvation issues as well, most often during right turns (on the street, not track).

In addition to fuel "sloshing" to one side of the two-chamber fuel tank, the plastic top broke away from the stainless steel mounting pins inside the tank, and the car would intermittently die, probably because the fuel pickup was flopping around in the tank. This also caused a faulty fuel gage reading, making the tank appear fuller than it was.
