Yep & mine has only had ethanol free 93 put in since day 1.....real gas & less likely to have water,corrosion,etc. In the fuel system.
Just got back from a 395mile road trip w/6 hours of seat time (pretty much all interstate) and look at the remaining fuel/range.

I fuel starve a lot at the track 1/3 tank will always get a stutter. Just straighten out shake the wheel a bit(to get fuel back right) and be a bit careful till you can top off. The pump will reprime and you'll probably. Be Okay.

I faced fuel starvation on street with over half tank, I found later that it was because of broken oem fuel pump hat. I didn't faced any fuel starvation on street before, only on track. I think it broke because the car is used mostly on track, we have very hot summer and it is a 2010MY (2009 production).

There is a member on here that I know personally that has ran into it 3 times on the Dragon. I ran into it myself once, not starvation but rather a loss in power, on a 90 degree turn.
