Looks like it needs to come apart. 3-4 clutches are probably done for. Looks like a piece of friction material that you are holding. A very "cooked" piece.

I changed my fluid on Friday after my trans would not shift the 2-3 shift without hitting the limiter at the track the week before and my pan didn't look that bad but the magnet was similar with the amount of **** on it and now the trans seems to shift as good as it has ever now that it was changed

that was the case for me the first time, i was lucky that it was only the fluid. This time im not so lucky. I did the fluid and it did nothing. So im going to replace the solenoids and see if thats what it is, if not im going ot start saving for another build trans. This will be number 3 i think, maybe 4.
