car stalling issues

My car has been stalling out whenever lined up next to big V8s. The vibrations from thier exhaust, burnouts, etc, it seems? Any ideas?

It's due to the vibrations screwing up your MAS. It measures the vibrations in a wire caused by the incoming air to measure airflow. When there is as much disturbance in the air as caused by a big V8, it can not get an accurate reading at low airflows. At the track I usually hold my RPMs up to 1500 or 2000 and the problem disappears. Hope this helps.
