Angry Car stuck in gear

I was out playin one night and downshifted to first at 30mph and ran up to 3rd. The minute I shifted from 2nd to 3rd and left out on the pedal the car just rev'd and I could not disengage out of 3rd gear. So i pushed back in on pedal and yanked it out of 3rd. My first thougts was it was a bad shift on my part. Well time went on and it happened again. But this time I shifted out of 2nd and into 3rd but i was locked out of 3rd and from that point all gears. + my pedal was down on the floor and not responding at all. I have had the rev. slave installed by dealer for free when they were replacing the shift forks and such. Thx to a TSB Also at that time i had them install a Z06 Clutch Kit at my cost . Since the dealer work I have had only that one episode of being locked out of gears and pedal stuck to floor. So I have taken my car to Perfomance shop in town and they are going to do the drill mod when they install the cam and springs and such. Well I went to the shop today to p/u my catback that I have up for sale since i ordered my TSP True dual sys. While i was there I looked at my Existing clutch "zo6 kit" and I asked him for his opinion and he said it basically looked new. No blue coloring or tint to the flywheel or plate and the surface was in great condition. So I am totally lost now as to, why my car is acting up like this. ONly good new is the n2o added power is not killing my clutch. Nor my stock rear end which i had the dealer service back in oct. and they said that it is doing great as well. I dont have slicks . But i am throwing down 488rwhp and 633rwtrq, on a dyno jet. Any help will be so greatly appreciated.

You have more than one problem here . Your clutch release system and your third synchro need work.
