Trouble hitting gears under hard acceleration

Trouble hitting gears under hard acceleration
I have a OZ700 and it seems fine under normal driving. I havn't noticed every time but I have been missing 3rd more than normal around 6300rpm. I didnt do the drill mod just a new slave and clutch set. I'm not claiming to be an outstanding driver but I can usually grab a gear pretty good. The peadle is in but it won't go in third. Does this just sound like driver error or does something in my hydralics system need upgraded to solve the problem or does it sound like sychros maybe? Thanks

when i'm really ripping it it just wont go in. Today after work i took off just normal driving and it ground goin in second, third, and fourth. Only did it once though. When i got back in town and driving they never did it again. I made sure i pushed the peddal all the way down and it didn't do it. I think my hydralics are just weak. I'm gonna try to re bleed it and i'm gonna need to eventually step up to a better master and slave. I usually only have problems though at really high rpm. It seems like when i just smash it the hydros aren't putting enough pressure or something because its like i didnt push the clutch in. Go to hit the gear and by that time i'm starting to hit the gas and it just revs really high because it didn't get in the gate.

To start off, jack your car up and see if the tires stop spinning when you push the clutch pedal in while in gear. Then rev it to see if it is dragging ever so slightly. If it's dragging, then your problem is most likely the master or something else in the hydraulics.
Right before I got my McLeod I was having trouble shifting at high rpms. Normal driving it was fine, but when I was trying to pound it I would get blocked out on every shift. Everything was fresh except for the mc, which had about 43-44k on it. After I replaced that with a new McLeod everything was perfect again.

On my 98 with no upgrade on Hydraulics and tranny was not upgraded to a rebuild, I would miss third all day, and second alot also at 6500 rpms, with my 00, I have had the tranny rebuilt for 700rwhp and Hydraulics upgraded to the 01-02's with the drill mod, no problems anymore with the missing third gear problem.
