Default Holley Blue fuel pump mysteriously fails

The Holley Blue pump is basically brand new, maybe 1000 miles on it. As far as I know, all electrical connections are secure, but who knows...this has only happened twice, and never near my home/tools/garage.

It's happened twice on the exact same section of road, once last night, and once about two months ago.. Never anywhere else. I'm really giving her, floored, and then I feel the fuel starvation kick in, look down, no fuel pressure... pull over... Nothing visibly wrong..pump feels warm to the touch. I end up sitting and waiting, and after about 5-10 mins, the pump works again.

I wish it would happen at home so I could look into it more.

I'm wondering if it has to do with the road being somewhat bumpy, me standing on the gas, or a combination..

Thanks in advance.
