Is the tranny low on oil? Check the dipstick. When is the last time you changed your tranny fluid?

dont want to put you down or anything but the problem is your hotrodding a 94 automatic civic, dont no your situation but proably has some miles on it, so the trans is probably going out. a 94 auto is for economy not street racing. and also if you never have changed your trans fluid before dont do it b/c your trans will go out for sure. sry to be a downner
