Did a couple of donuts and..
The weather in NYC is great today 55F so i went to a parking lot and pulled some donuts for probably 15-20sec. The car stalled while i was on throttle. I had 3 bars of fuel left so maybe the gravity did its thing and starved the motor from fuel? Haven't checked the ecu yet,but I have no codes on dash or limp mode.

Next time you do that just disable traction control altogether.
By the way, I'm talking about a PFL here. Don't know if this happens with FL though.

Im pretty sure that it was fuel starvation in my case. When doing donuts the off center gravity will pull the fuel away from the pump and bubbles get in the line and the motor stalls. Next time i will make sure the tank is full before i start doing some shenanigans.
