Default not shifting

I have a problem. My transmission has started to not want to shift when I floor it. My car is tuned, and the rev limiter is set to 300 RPMs higher thatn the shift point. It does fine for city driving. The guys who tunes my car changed my shift points and rev limiter a little higher to see if it did the samething and it did. No matter where my shift point is above 6,000 RPMs when I floor it, it just passes it and won't shift and start to bounce off the rev limiter. It won't shift till i let go of the gas. It does this on D and OD. It does this when i floor it no matter what speed I floor it from.

The oil is good. The only thing ever done to it is when I changed the trasmission oil, filter, rear main seal, and I had the shifter cable changed also, but that was done at 75,000 or 100,000 miles I'm not really sure. I have 148,500 miles on it right now. I did have the gasket on the pan changed about 5 months ago cuz it was leaking.

Have your tuner lower the WOT mph about 5-8 mph (upshift and downshifts). See if that helps. If there were no mods performed and it just started doing this all of a sudden, then chances are your tranny is going south. As mentioned above , make sure the fluid level is at the full mark at idle.
