Went to the racetrack, but the fuel pump seemed to hesitate after only 50 miles on track, and it had stalled twice. Ended my day in that car, but I did drive the 850 around for a few laps. I drove to work and back and fuel indicator showed I was at 0 miles, however light didn't come on. I added 5 gallons or so from a fuel tank, and then filled up at the station. Seemed I still had a gallon or more in the tank.
