Default trany problems

well tommorow i drop my car off to find out whats really wrong with my trans, but ill still like to know what yall think. ive been read all these post about diffrent problems but i have alot of diffrent ones im now noticing. like its sometimes hard to go into reverse and first gear, and its been popping out of 3rd gear lately but only at high rpms, but most recently my wierdest problems are that my car doesnt feel like its putting the power to the ground its slow on accel and when i try to doburn outs it starts to stall or from a drop i revvs but the tires dont really do anything. any ideas. i took it to the track last weekend put down a 9.01 in the 1/8th, 3times it popped outta 3rd but every time wed try dropping it at like 2500 to heat the tires my drivers side tire wasnt really doing anything but the car felt like it was, but launching it would be fine, thats all i can think of any ideas? thanx sorry to make you read all that.

Jump out of 3rd is a common/ known issue . A search would have revealed to you that you will need an iron 3/4 fork replacement and synchronizer ( depending on how long/ how much you damaged the clutching teeth- you may also require a new 3 driven gear)
