Default 150cc ASW Zircon engine keeps dying on the trail. Ideas anyone?

Ok, so I'll give you some background first.

ASW Zircon. Stock except for high flow filter.
Sat unused for 2 years
clear fuel lines, vacuum style petcock works great.
new filter
brand new 24mm carb
new plug
fresh gas
No vacuum leak that I can find.

Here is my problem. The buggy starts and idles fine. The buggy does great on the top end and all points in between. When I am driving on the trails everything is good until I hit the brakes and lock up the rear wheels. When I hit the brakes, 9 times out of 10 the buggy will stall and die. It won't start easily again unless I give it a small bit of throttle. Then it starts and accelerates fine. Thought maybe the 20 dollar carb was junk, so I rebuilt the tamper proof stocker. buggy still dies. I have tried all kinds of different idle speed settings. The buggy did not do this prior to the 2 years of inactivity. Any ideas? (Please tell me I need an A9 cam, big bore kit, higher compression, ported big valve head and aftermarket exhaust,bigger carb, a turbo, and nitrous. All running on methanol LOL...! just kidding around. For now)
