The only thing that I can think of that would cause this with out an electrical wire coming loose is the roll over valve in the fuel line.

Sometimes a sudden swerve or 360 deg. spin can cause the check ball in the roll over valve to close and stick; shutting off fuel to the engine.

If the car won't start. Try rocking the rear of the car up and down several times to dislodge the check ball and let it seat back in it's neutral position; opening the fuel line.
