Problem going into 3rd at top of 2nd.
For some reason when I'm trying to get into 3rd at the top of 2nd gear it feels like I'm hitting a wall with the shifter, not grinding or anything though.
When I let the clutch back up it doesn't come back right away but when it finally does it takes a 2nd to gain pressure back before it feels normal again.
It never does this during normal driving, just WOT.
I think it might be the master or air in system but I'd like to know you guys' input.

I also have the same issue at wot in 2nd gear shifting to 3rd. I also have a B and M shifter. Some times the clutch will not come back up after it happens- I have to pull it up with the tip of my foot. Car only has 25000miles- no drag racing, stock clutch. It is very annoying and will cost me if I ever have it happen when racing. Tell me how you solve it. PM me.

I did the drill mod on mine last summer that bandaided the problem for a month or 2 then the same thing happened.. just had a monster level 3 and tick master installed and bye bye sticking pedal

If the pedal is sticking and you have the drill-mod then this is evidencing a hydraulic issue...more specifically...a fluid transfer issue. You either have air in the system or the slave or master are bypassing fluid internally which is limiting the ability of the fluid to move back up line. You can try bleeding the system to see if that makes a difference. I also suggest checking the fluid...if it is dark or cloudy then it needs to be replaced. Flush it, refill it, and see if that leads to improved shifting. Let me know what you find and I will be happy to assist further. Thanks!

I am having the same problem.
Have gone through 4 OEM master cylinders, 3 clutches, and 3 slave cylinders.
Just installed a new slave yesterday and the problem is still there. I think an upgraded Tick master will be the next step.
