Default Lightning 2 Cutting out

Hi all,

Back in September I bought a Hot Bodies Lightning 2 RR and love it so much I am entering next years nationals, but I have run into a problem. A month or so ago, I was running around my track and it was performing great. I refilled it for the 3rd run in a row and blipped the throttle just to make sure the engine would still be kept alive. As I accelerated away, it cut out. I was confused to say the least. I restarted it and ran it around slowly and it seemed fine. Built up the speed and as I got to half throttle it cut out again. I restarted it and slowly accelerated away again. Got to half throttle and it cut out. I reckon it's had 30 + runs, so the engine is broken in. I used O'Donnell 25% fuel. Is anyone able to shed light on my predicament?

Regards
Paul
