Ya if i shift like at 7k RPM its smooth and easy but when i shift at redline it locks me out... It has seemed to get better after i installed the buddy club SS and the extender but havent gone to the drag strip yet to test it out

I meant to say maybe the clutch pedal is not adjusted properly.

I would think it would do that for all the gears when shifting at redline but it only does it when going from first to second... trying to get it figured out before the race season
