Default occasion stall

So I'm going though a roundabout the other day, about 20 MPH and the car stalls. Put it in N and it starts no problem. A few seconds later, I am taking a left and it starts to stall, I get off the gas, it recovers and drives fine. About a week later, same roundabout, same stall, same restart. But a few seconds later this time the car completely dies. No power at all. I pull over pop the hood and as I step out of the car, power comes back, car starts/runs fine. I don't drive that far now, but soon I will be making long trips, a little worried. Any ideas? Thanks all.

Check the Bunch of little wires that attach to the Positive cable at the battery.
Make sure they are clean and tight.
