raced an SRT4 tonight and discovered something. This was the first time I pushed my 05 RL to redline. In first gear I accelerated to redline, felt it hit the rev-limiter, then proceeded to shift in to second. However, it didn't want to go into second. In other words, it felt like there was no second gear to shift into.
im guessing you didnt win? LOL

You could have some slightly mis-adjusted shifter cables as well. Have you installed a B&M shifter by chance?
When you hit the revlimiter the engine rocks backwards and can alter the "slack" position in the shifter cables. That can be enough to affect the shifting, but others have commented that the rev-limter can create a double whammy at the shifter as well.
