No gas?

Perhaps a proper racing fuel cell is in order for development.

You can do a fuel cell, but they are expensive. Travis has a modified tank that helped him, not perfect but a big improvement.

i've had this happent to me 4 times now. all with 1/4 tank.

everytime this has happened is doing a sharp turn / launch onto an onramp. right at the top of the ramp, my engine shuts off. the first 3 times, i had to have someone bring me gas.

however, this last time, i knew what happened so i would shake the car back at forth to get the gas on the correct side of the tank. after shaking for a minute, i pulled to the side, and she started right up again.

so a tip, if this ever happens to you, shake the car around, stop, then start her up. it just might save you a headache.
