Default Why am I redlining?
Everytime I gun it all the way on first gear it redlines and gets all weird. Doesn't do it always, just when I gun it. Why is this?

If it's an automatic, it may be that you go through first so fast that for a brief instant you get to redline before the car knows to shift. What do you mean by all weird?

I would think that since that is the only time it happens, that it's not the tranny.

You are really going to have to explain more in depth if you plan on getting some actual help. With the information given, it could be a hundred things.
