Sounds like the converter is slipping,.. I'm assuming its an SRT based on your name.

Could be the dreaded transmission conector leak, as low fluid can cause the transmission to go into neutral, when driving hard. Get the fluid level checked first. If you search there's plenty info on this condition .............cheaper than a new convertor ...........

That doesn't mean that it hasn't already leaked. You should still check the fluid.
