Got this from a friend and fellow racer, a really good racer. Check the fuel pump. There was a car with this exact problem, and what was happening was that under G's from the launch, the armature of the fuel pump would move and short out. It did not show on the fuel pressure gauge. They fought this problem all year, and a new fuel pump fixed the car for the last time trial at the last race of the season.
