Fuel starvation on left turns anyone?
Does anyone experience fuel starvation when tuning left? How much fuel can you run with out starving the motor on left turns, especially long left turns.
I find my self running with at least 1/2 tank, once 1/2 wasn't enough and I had to add 2 more gallons.

Thank you Mrsideways. Wow, what a clip; it was nice to see the south course again and it's very clear your running on air for about 2 seconds near the end after the long left hander on the short stretch before the last R turn.
I still wonder if all of us have the same problem, maybe the ones that don't, just don't drive hard enough. It happened to me with Hoosiers and Kumos.
Mrsideways, I wonder who you are, I ran 90 BS and my brother 190 BS at the nationals.

Do you ever suck oil into the intake and blow huge clouds of smoke on hard right handers? I have had this issue, but never the fuel starvation. As I said in the other thread, I always run less than 1/2 tank.
