Default Car is shutting off out of the whole???

Not sure if this the right thread but I have an electrical problem. When I leave the lights under a hard load 4000 rpms or above, or more specifically, when the car dead hooks, my car shuts off for a brief second then comes back to life and is fine for the rest of the track. All the dash lights come along with the radio even though the radio is turned off.

A little background info: I never had this problem before I had the Moser 9" installed. At the same time, I installed an SLP linelock system. I'm not sure if either of these are the culprits. All electrical wires and spark plugs seem secure. I have the 9" with no ABS provision as my car has ABS but not TC, which means my ABS INOP light is on. I am assuming it is some sort of loose electrical connection since it only does it on a hard whole launch, in everyday driving, it is fine. Please help advise and diagnose as I am beating my head against the wall.

Make sure your battery isn't loose enough to rock back and ground out.
