Rx7 shuts-off during hard cornering.

Rx7 shuts-off during hard cornering.
So normaly I will drive my rx7 smooth, easy, etc... because its my first rx7 and all. But every once in a while Ill push it around abit, drive it reckless, in empty parking-lots of course.
So today, on my way home from work, I went to an empty parking-lot to do some trashing around.
1st, I went through the parking lot to see if it was empty enough, then I performed a quick turn-around manuver using the parking-brake. while doing it, the engine cut off/stalled. I have done this befor a couple of times every once in while and the engine did not stall.
Other times ive driven like this, while hard-cornering the engine cuts out, like fuel-cut, it does it for a second or two, comes back, dosen't stall.
Last time I was doing a drive through the moutains with the local rx7 club. I was experiencing this.
Another odd thing about my rx7 is, in hot weather it will idle at 500rpm. Ive adjusted my timing awhile back, it was way off, got it right, ever since then its being idling at 500rpm when hot.
Any comments?
Sorry if this is a repost. <(to all the repost *****)

First of all, I believe this is all in the FAQS.
The dieing in the corners is either a clogged fuel sock or the baffles in the tank are rusted out.
The low idle can just be re-adjusted as stated in the FSM.

i agree.
or
it could be that your fuel supply hose has popped off of the hardline by the fuel filter.
no joke. mine did this to me yesterday on my way to the dentist. i pulled a hard corner and poof! engine dies. coasted into a parking lot to check things out and look back to see liquid trail where i was coasting and smell o' gas.
kidding though of course, your problem is probably what Slideways7 mentioned.
