Tranny thoughts on 1-2 slip
I have a 4L60E with 60k in 7 years. It has a 4000 stall for about 5000 miles. Once at the track 2 years ago it bounced off the rev limiter from 1-2, another time 6 months ago, and then just for the first time with the stall. I drove the car hard a week ago and raced it 6 times in 3 hours and it never slipped, it looked like it shifted though a little bit after 6000 like 6150ish and it is rev limited @ 6000.
i guess my question is if it is normal to have a slip shift here and there or is that a sign of wear?
thanks

You are experiencing the effects of a worn transmission.
It is normal to see odd shift feel symptoms on high mileage units that have been driven hard. It's the nature of having a performance vehicle.

Try flushing or changing the fluid first before assuming that the trans is going out. I have seen this take care of that issue on more than one occasion. Always check the simple things first. If that doesn't work then you know there are other issues.
