Default Sharp loss of power after hard turning?

i have just bought an rb5, and for some strange reason when i turn hard around a tight corner or go around a roundabout hard, as i come off the roundabout and straighten up there is a sudden loss of power with no throttle response for about half a second. it seems very odd. i would have said it was 'tank slosh' but it also did it with half a tank of fuel in it. please help as it is very odd and can be very uncomfortable when you lose the power!!!

search in here for fuel surge and you will find your answer!
scoobys tend to do that, even with half a tank of fuel...
