until it shifts? by itself, or let up at like 5000rpm, to let it shift into the next gear? For example, if you floor an SUV in first, it will rev til it has nothing left, then shift. Should you shift yourself, it seems the tranny has no idea what to do. I'd rather shift manualy, at around 4000.
I know racing in an SUV is dumb, just something I've thought about in my arduous mind...
It's a very potent 5.2 L 8.
 
Instead of nailing it give 3/4 throtel and it should work like you want. Souns like your detent cable to your trans is out of adj.
