A high speed run on the highway, hard to think of how starvation could happen. Many of us have run these cars very hard with no problems.
At a track, a very long carousel or turns are usually the problem. I would think that at the track your friend would be monitoring the pressure and temperature and seen the drop in pressure before the engine would fail. A pressure drop usually happens the same place in the same corner each time around. Staying in a higher gear will often help. Loosing a couple of tenths VS a DNF is a good plan.
This is coming from a guy that HAS left parts all over the track.
Again the first answer still holds. An Accusump might have helped your friend not sure what could have helped you on the street.
An other question-- were both of these problems in FRS or BRZ? Statement was not clear.
