Fuel Starvation

Anyone know how low we can run the fuel till we hit starvation on hard corners. My Tc had starvation last year on a elavation change. So from then on I ran 3/4 full tank of gas if not just full.

I don't know where the absolute limit is. I know your can go WOT all you want at 1/4 with no issues, and I've done donuts and drifting below 1/4 tank with no starvation as well. I generally try to not let it get below 1/4 when doing crazy stuff though - higher fuel levels keep the pump cooler and help it live longer.
