Default 93 auto transmission help!!

So last year I went to the track and didn't check the fluid level untill I made a few passes and it was low. it was getting stuck in gears untill you punch it and take it up to like 5000-6000 rpm then it would shift but never did that for over drive.. So I parked it for the winter and a few days ago I was driving it to the gas station and it caught over drive perfectly fine.. So do I just leave it alone or do I rebuild it.. It has a shift kit and a 2800 stall.... Do you guys know y this happened and do you think it's okay to drive..??

What do you mean? Does the trans not shift? Does it take off in the wrong gear? Are there any codes? We need a lil more info to help.

The t/v valve may have stuck while you were at the track, it happens on wot runs. It's under spring pressure and probably popped loose. If it's working now it should be fine.

And I also had low trans fluid cause I didn't feel like checking it. You still think that was the problem just the spring..,?
