Default not running right!

Ok soo I went to the track tonight with somewhat high expectations after new lt's and ory. But I was running exactly what I was running before and my car wouldnt shift pass 6k rpms in third? Am I just in a huge need of a tune!? I also know its running rich, but whats up with it not shifting? About 5/6ths a way down the track it would hit the 6k mark and after that I lost hope for really improving tonight. I was making R/Ts of under .0_ every time though

Thanks for any help!

A good tune sounds like what you need. Good luck.

agreed with Coach, a tune will be your next move here.

If car won't hit 6k check trans fluid level.
