Petrol tank was about half full. No oil pressure gauge of baffel.
Oil was up to the max. Would it miss like that if it was oil related?

The car started doing it all the time now straights, round corners ect. I did notice when the car was turned of for a while then started again it was ok for 20/30 seconds then started again

Also the car did drop out of vtec/ hesitated for spilt second when came out of a hard right hand chicane. I was thinking that was because of the oil? Its the only hard right hander on the track.

could possibly be oil starvation if the turn was hard enough to move the oil out of the way of the pickup
