Default C6 third gear problem

Does anybody know if there's some kind of safety mechanism with the c6 during spirited driving. The car pulls out strong in 1st and 2nd, but putting it into 3rd feels like I just stuck it in neutral. WTF?! Anyone else have this problem?

If you haven't had any sort of tuning, these car pull MAJOR timing for TM purposes. It isn't uncommon for the computer to pull half the timing out during spirited driving once it sees operating temp normal. This sux, but it's an easy fix with LS2 edit, HP Tuners, Diablo, Superchips,etc. BTW do yourself a favor & throw in a 160 thermo while your at it.
