1-2 shift at WOT on 700R4

When I launch at the track, the car revs to about 6000-7000 before it shifts into 2nd. After about 5500 RPMs the car just stops pulling until it finally hits 2nd. What can I do to fix this?

BTW, The car is an '85 Iroc 305 TPI. I haven't done any major mods to it yet. My times at the track were all around 15.6 sec at around 88MPH. I was expecting faster.

IF the 2-3 is @5500 then it likely means that the band is in rough shape as they should e about the same RPM. If they are both that high then there is some unusual calibration problem as this is much higher than a 700 should shift.

It shifts from 2-3 with no problem. It's only 1-2 that is slow.
