Default loss of power suddenly

very strange and it just started happening today. I get on it in first and from about 2 grand to 5 grand it is sluggish, after, it pulls hard. same with third and fourth. i came home today and was up next to my buddys Z28 which we should be side by side when racing. we take off and he instantly pulls, so it is definately a power loss. we did this twice from third gear through 4th. then we try from 2nd gear once and we are side by side (NO POWER LOSS). do it again, and power loss. SO in other words it happens sometimes but not all the time. i had my wife with me in the car and we did it about 4 more times. she noticed the times it did not pull as opposed to when it did. very strange. i did fill up today with ultra gas from sunoco for the first time if this has anything to do with it???? any ideas? thanks,

jim

other than power loss, everything else seems to be running fine.
