    The easy fix is to run a full tank of gas but that's pretty obvious. An external fuel pump won't help unless you change the pickup location. An external accumulator would likely fix your problem. I had the exact same problem so I went to a fuel cell with an internal surge tank. ATL makes a "well cell" that fits nicely in the spare tire well.

    Got grip, now found new problem

    I'm sure of you remember my rant about how my car didn't grip and the brakes suck.

    Well, I got myself some track pads and wrapped my weaves in 225 RA-1's and it feels awesome. Couldn't believe the improvement in longitudal grip...I couldn't even activate ABS.

    Lateral grip was awesome as well. But has caused a new problem for me. Last session of the day and I'm having fun with an friend in an STi that was running really close times with me in Time Attack. I begine going around this long increasing radius turn and as I straighten out my car stop accelerating.

    My first thought was fuel pump stopped working, but 3 long seconds later car accelerated again and felt normal. This happened 2 laps in a row so I gave up.



    I had half tank of fuel and feel like that is a rediculous amount to have starvation problems with. Is there some type of fix for this? I was thinking adding an external fuel pump would help?
Working...
