Alright, so today my buddy and I went to the track to try and get some good times in his car. Anyway as he was running it, it would grab first off of the launch, hold second, slip third, get out of it for a split second, get back in and hold, and hold 4th. On the way home, the clutch holds in every gear just fine.

I am thinking that maybe the clutch restrictor, stock line, and extra fluid res might be causing an issue with clutch engagement. Does anyone have an idea of what this could be? Restrictor keeping engagment too slow or maybe a collapsed line? I considered overheating the clutch but if you get out of it for a second and get right back in it it is fine.

Thanks for any help guys.
