Default LS6 Brunton Stalker sputtering in the corners

I've got an LS6 Brunton Stalker (Lotus Super 7 look alike). If you hit a bump or get into the corners the car will sputter for a few seconds and then get back into power and it will also smell like fuel. If I fill the fuel cell up to the brim it still does this.

Any ideas?

If you are smelling fuel, you probably have a problem. I would triple check every fuel fitting and the rails and injectors. Go buy a fire extinguisher from Home Depot and take it with you until you sort out the problem. In fact, take it with you even after you sort it out.

It's not impossible that you are smelling fuel from the vent on the tank, but if you smell it while driving, I seriously don't think that's the case.

Yeah I have 2 fire extinguishers with me at all times. I'm going to check the grounds and the fuel pressure. I think the fuel cell breather has gone bad too.
