Cutting out at autox event
I ran an autox event a couple weekends ago and after the final right hand sweeper leading up to a sharp right hand turn i kept hitting a half engine light that was putting me in limp mode, at this section of the track its only about 28 seconds into the course and in no way were my temps so high that it should be shutting me down. the code it was giving was a injector cut off something or other so im wondering if i just maybe didnt have enough fuel in the tank?
any ideas from you pros? im running a walboro 450 bucketless lpfp and 18psi so she drinks the fuel, custom e50 tune

how much gas did you have in your tank? I get fuel starvation on-track even with 1/4 tank. Typically run with 1/2 a tank or more.
Unrelated, but auto-x with 18psi and E50 sounds like a ton of useless power. Also, bucketless is not the best setup for high-g's. You should have stayed with the bucket.

1/4 tank and yes alot of useless power out there but man it was fun i'll fill it up to over half next time, and ill order the long pickup mat for the pump for now. when i put the bucketless in i wasnt thinking about ever really setting the car up for road racing or autox was more concerned with beating down the local mustangs and other various giant v8 american cars.
Thanks for the input man
