car won't start after high revving

hey guy i know ill probably be told to just use the search button but I tried and I couldn't find anyone with this exact problem.
I drive a 2004 rx8, as far as i know all the recalls and flashes have been done on it.
I was doing some spirited driving last night, and of course cause I'm a genius my gas light was on. at around the end of second gear the car just cut out, made kind of a grinding sound if i heard correctly, all the lights on the dash came on and it died.
I put around 10 dollars of gas in it but still no start, tried cranking it with the gas depressed and nothing, however I had no way of accessing the internet so i couldn't check the exact deflooding procedure.
So what do you guys think? the car is parked where I left it so I'm gonna drive down and tow it later today if it doesn't start, would there be a possibly that it flooded, because there wasn't any gas in the car. I'm hoping its starved fuel injectors or fuel pump or something and not compression lost from something internal. any help would be appreciated.

that is against forum rules.
