I had my rr in my race car (99 camaro) and the other day at the track and it did something I never seen before. After a few mins the car would just die, it would then just spin over and not start. I would have to re-flash the tune into the rr and the car would fire right up. It did this 5 or 6 times and I then just put the stock pcm back in.

Only time I have ever experienced (myself) or heard of this sort of this is if you happen to be using the USB RoadRunner connection to your laptop at the same time as an laptop power adapter (from the cigarette lighter).

All I had to do is remove the power from the laptop and it would be fine. I of course found this after changing the PCM in the middle of the road in rush hour traffic LOL

I can only use my rr with wireless, it locks up with the usb cable. I always run my laptop off batt only. It acted like it would lose the tune for some reason.
