Exclamation Acceleration Problem

I dont really know how to explain this but i will try. When i get into the higher gears and try to accelerate fast, the RPMs go up and I can hear the engine workin harder, but i dont go anywhere. Then after a few seconds the RPMs will drop and the car will pick up and go. Anyone know or have an Idea what might be wrong? I dont know jack about carz engine why'z so anything will help. Thanks.

I'd go with an ACT one. I've also heard that Centerforce makes good ones too.
