Question Help!! went to the track tonight

Well i went to atco to do a little gamblers racing and in the first round of elim's right about after the 60' the truck nosed over and i could feel a loss of power. I looked down at my dash and my odometer freaked out 'and instead of reading the miles it had lines all the way across it, and my overdrive light was blinkin on and off. When i got out of the throttle about a minute later everything went back to normal. I even ran it again and it was fine. Has this happened to anyone? My truck is not running what it should IMO but it is useually consistent. Another Q for guys that are running higher stalls, how are you launching your trucks?

I ran into this problem with a Friends truck with a bigger stall speed convertor. It puts the truck in some sort of fail safe mode. O/D light flashes, speedo goes all ------ and truck ****fs like ****. Im not sure what the remedey is for this mabye sal or JL or JDM could help you out.

Loose chip or the contacts were not cleaned thoroughly enough.
