Hi all I have a new 2016 SHO with 3map 93 octane livernois tune CAI, 170 thermo, and down pipes. Today at the track I was building boost about 2k rpm, when I launched the car stalled, it didn't die, just when I pushed the gas nothing happened. I turned the car off and back on and it then functioned normally. Just wanted to know if it's something that I should be concerned about, or just a random bug that happens occasionally?

I have to ask, did you turn the traction control off?

I had an issue with my car not "launching" properly, or as I thought it should. I reflashed the PCM with the LMS tuner and it was fine after that.

OP, was the PCM relearn complete before you took it to the track, or did you reflash at the track, or ...?

so people who reflash at the track for their race tunes are doing it wrong?

Yes :D The drive cycle needs to be completed before the car performs as it should (see owner's manual). It may FEEL like the car is performing better (harder shifts etc.), but actually results in slower times. Odd, I know, but that's been the usual experience.

I have had mine basically fall on its face, seemed to be caused by stalling up too long, only did it once.
