Question Cutting out at track..

The car seemed to be cutting out at the track last week. I really noticed it after my second pass when I was heading down the return lane at about 2,500 rpm. Then when I was heading home from the track it was doing it it almost felt like someone was jerking the rearend backwards.

I havent found out why yet. I'm wondering if taking out the air filter could have caused it bc once I put it back in my car acted fine again and I've checked everything (ign., fuel, valves) nothing was wrong. I didnt suck anything up bc my maf screen is still in and would have caught anything big.

I did check the backlast in the rearend and its right where it's suppost to be.



Any thoughts????

Could be a loose wire or ground? Making the car shut off then back on real quick.

Any codes?

No codes. and it did it a lot on the way home so it should have. I was wanting it to kick one on so I could figure it out.

I think all it was, was that I took out the air filter. I'm guessing the added air it was messing with my MAF sensor.. car hasnt messed up again since I put it back in..
