Is the converter your to aggressive for the cold track?
Mongs wasnt having issues at the hill when we were there, he had issues a few weeks before that though with the 34.5 hoosiers on his, he had mt's on there when we were there. first 60FT doesnt seem to be the issue its at the shift that seems to be the issue, 1.072-1.078 4 hits today, even at bunker with the wore out gys it was 1.05 but wouldnt make it at the shift.
I do have my none aggressive converter in there 6800 loose as they come, was made for my orange car when it was a hardtail and has been pretty trusty to be no aggressive. Today it did manage to get about 500-550ft 4.81@129 was 3.049 to the 330.

But the main issue even with Crawfords hoosiers today was that it would not stay straight when it started making power after the shift, . Its a scary ride ... if I do anything I may put a 3.90 gear in it this winter to calm it down a little.
