Default can anyone make sense of this?

I took my car for a test run. I live on a dirt road. I stepped on it redlining first gear spinning the tires. All good untill the car didn't shift and was bouncing of rev limiter like I was driving a stick.

Is there any reason why the trans wouldn't have shifted?

You need a re-tune for them gears. Mine did the same thing on the track after we got the gears in it, and we just adjusted the shift points. No problems now..

Yea, you need it re-tuned again. The shift points have to be adjusted. Mine did the same thing.
