Fuel starvation sounds likely. I personally never let the fuel level go below 1/4 tank at a track; it's just a habit from my RX-8 days.

There was also a guy running a 2.0T at an open lapping day I went to who also had some issues when his fuel level was very low.

As for lifter failure, I doubt it. I once worked on a Toyota Highlander V6 that somehow dropped a valve spring and no one in their right mind could just ignore the vibration. Also, manuals also have the AFM lifters, they are just never activated. Very few failures related to them are reported.

Dude thanks for the insight! yeah im thinking this could be it... I had a red SS that had no issues with low fuel, but im gonna try homestead with a heavier fuel load again next month and see what happens. it seems every time this has happened its been on a left turn... would that make sense for sloshing/fuel starvation?
