Here I can hold about 80-85, not that much G's, no idea of fuel starve.

Here I can hold 110-115, much more G's, much easier time to starve.

haha geez someone doesnt like jokes. i set that all up for a fast and furious joke. dont pop a blood vessel

you may just have a bad fuel pump or something if you had fuel starve at low G's. i'd say look into it.

as for the dragon if you take it on at speed then i think it becomes quite like a track but probably harder than most. might not be as fast but the turns come much faster and some are really tight. plus you only have 1 lane to use not a whole width of a track......oh yea and cops. difficulty seems to fall in favor of the dragon here lol

11 miles - 318 turns. how many does your track have

I give up. You just don't understand the difference of a turn, the G's you pull, the duration needed in that turn etc to empty and dry out the purge container.

but you're going right and left quickly so fuel just splashes over the hump to the right saddle while making a quick left, probably.

how about slowing down on public roads? no need to be going 85mph on an entrance ramp. if you're having issues on a road course, wasn't there some vendor here that has a cure for this issue?

i wonder if getting stickier tires contributes to this? how many that have had this problem are still on the stock re050s vs better tires?

The dragon is more like a mild autoX course than a road course.

You'll see fuel starve on the turns you can gas out of, and a good bit on hellbender if you push it (but you're really getting into the "dumb" region at that point)
