Default Transmission acting strange

I was on the freeway and punched it in 3rd and on the 2-3 shift I hit the rev limiter.

I then let out switched to over drive and it didn't do it. Is there a reason for this. My car has never been tuned and I have stock gears.

I tried a search but didn't really find an answer. It has only did this a couple of times

well there is a difference between the 2-3 shift in 3rd and the 2-3 shift in the OD position . The Overun clutch comes on during the 2-3 shift in the 3rd position this may due to additional fluid ussage cause a slightly longer time required to make the 2-3 shift than it does in the OD position , If your shift points are already very close to the limiter this small amount of time could push it to the limiter

It isn't that theres not enough fluid in the pan , Its that only so much volume can travel through a given space at a time. The only fix might be to lower you 2-3 shift point just a little
