Was this posted in Performance to begin with? If so, that would be the wrong subforum. Pretty simple...you even have the word "problem" in your title.

I agree with the diagnosis of malfunctioning torque converter. My oldsmobile did the same thing when I floored it going about 25-30 mph and it tried shifting down to first and just ran the rpm to nearly redline and just sat there.
