Took my '63 out to the local 1/8th mi. dragstrip fri.nite.  Made 6 
passes over @ 2.5 hrs.  Everything went well until the final pass.  As I 
staged the car I got a noise I've never heard before in any car.  It 
sounded like loud static coming from the radio.  I even reached over to 
make sure the radio was off.  I went ahead and made the run and 
everything seemed normal except that the 2-3 shift was sluggish.  The 
noise persisted all the way through the run but quit by the time I 
pulled off at the end of the track.  In looking at things as I pulled 
into the pit there was nothing obvious.  
I drove the car home shortly after that and the 2-3 shift was sluggish 
again as I pulled out on to the highway.  By the time I had driven it a 
mile or so and needed to run through the gears again it was shifting 
normally.  The next morning as I was looking things over I checked the 
tranny fluid and it smelled a bit like burning wiring.  So I'm wondering 
if the tranny fluid simply was too hot and was the cause of all these 
symptoms.  The car is a mild 440/727 w/ a shift kit.  I made runs #5 & 6 
back to back but the engine temp was in the normal range (needle @1/2 
way up) on run #6.  I don't have an auxillary oil cooler on the tranny.  

What do you guys think?

(btw, I made my fastest pass that nite, a 9.49.  But I still think this 
old girl has the potential for a little more.  Problems hookin' up.)
