Car is stalling when in a drift

[augimatic]

I was messing around the other day, and got the car to go sideways. Well actually I do this a lot. But this time the car stalled. I had a really good slide and I was on E and then the car just stalled out. I think I know what is it but just to make sure I'm not missing anything I was wondering if you guys had any thougts. I'm pretty sure it's cause my tank was almost empty. But not sure.
