Car wont shift to second at WOT
Was driving my camaro (see sig) and romped on it. Pulled great, but towards the top end it felt like it stopped pulling, but kept revving up almost like the wheels were spinning. At first I didnt think anything of it because i have drag radials that are pretty worn. But, then i realized that it stayed in a completely strait line while i thought it was "spinning the tires".
So I pulled over, checked the fluid. Amount was right on the money. Got back in and launched it again from first and towards the top end it felt like it was either spinning or almost in neutral and banged the rev limiter 6 times (normally it may hit it once and shifts). I let out and it promptly shifted.
At 80 percent throttle it shifts fine. Holding it steady at 4500 rpm and shifting to second manually it shifts firm and fine as well. No flair shifting and no check engine light.

Also i think i noticed a shutter or vibration from under the car while when it was supposed to shift and the cam surge feels worse than normal.
