   This seems to happen occasionally and seems like a misfire. Also happens when accelerating but seems to happen as if the battery was loose/ every time hit bump.
   
   Now I've checked all the connections on the terminals and are solid and battery is stable in place- Could this be a connection to alternator or something.
   
   I did go on track (pugfest) yesterday.. Help please

   As you said mate, it could be the connection to the alternator, or it could be a loose earth from the battery to the chassis

   Clean the alternator connections up,if it persists then get the alternator charging rate checked.
