ok so a buddy of mine took his car to the track this weekend and got off a few passes without any drama. then came the 4th pass, no 1st gear. he told me that he could drive around the pits in 2nd and downshift and there would be no gear reduction, no rpm rise. when leavin the line the converter would flash to 3800 and his 60 ft was 1.65.- i havent driven the car but he says it just leaves the line like a pooch.
its a 540bbc with a turbo 400 forward manual valve body with a neal chance 4500 stall converter- around 850 hp n/a.
im tryin to rack my brain as to what could be going on, but im not comin up with anything. the trans still has stock clutches in it with an updated sprag.
any ideas? im gonna have him pull it out when he gets back in town.
