2. Laps later, at the same corner exit, the car behaves as if i let go of the gas pedal completely and starts lowering RPM, 6k, 5k, 4k, 3k, then to 2k!? The car is not responding even when I pump the gas couple times. So I drove off the track on to the dirt. Turn off the engine, start it back on. Then everything returns to normal.

Anybody have any inputs to the two issues I had above? Thanks.
I'm not a track junkie, but I have read enough fuel starvation threads. I'm voting for fuel starvation too.

Also, the limp mode doesn't kick in till 280F (or 290F I can't recall). 240-250F is totally normal.
