Do the cars have factory baffles?

Im noticing ignition cut during hard turns, my friend saids its oil or fuel slosh. Do our FC's have their own baffle in the fuel and oil?

Not sure about the oil, but I know there is one in the fuel tank.

No baffle stock for the oil pan but the stock gas tank has a small mini container to help prevent running momentarily dry on hard turns. Some people still experience fuel problems though.

An easy fix is to just keep your tank filled up!

And make sure your fuel sock in the gas tank is clean.

It is very very common to have turn related fuel starvation problems if the fuel sock on the fuel pump is dirty.

If you are unsure if it is clean or not, replace it anyway

Remove fuel pump, pop off /remove fuel sock, snap/put on new fuel sock, reinstall fuel pump

Just a note: For the price of a fuel pump sock (I think mine was $6), just buy one, and replace it anyway. If you're goign to get that gas smell on your hands, at least make it worth your time It's too cheap not to replace.
