I had trouble shifting mine after a relatively short amount of time, and then I found out the clutch fluid in these cars and Corvettes gets contaminated pretty quick. I looked and sure enough it was cloudy (clutch dust I think). Since I didn't install a Tick speed bleeder (stupid move), I just changed the fluid in the reservoir and all was well.

So if you didn't install a speed bleeder, I recommend changing the fluid in the reservoir on a regular basis to keep it shifting great. Tick MC is the best upgrade for a 6 speed!

Before my tick m/c, I didn't even know what shifting was!

How are you guys adjusting your MC? After I installed mine today, I went for a good spirited drive, the 1st WOT run i couldnt get 5th, and the 2nd I couldn't get 4th at all. What's funny is my stock MC would make it into gear, but the pedal dropped to the floor. I guess I just don't have it adjusted right? Or my stock 106k mile slave and clutch aren't holding up. (But don't worry my Monster Stg 2, lw flywheel, and new slave are goin in in 2 days)
