Default Tranny problems at high rpms?

Hey guys so i recently started to have tranny problems at high rpms. At the track i was launching at 7500 rpms with slicks and try to shift into 3 and it would not go into gear so i tryed 4th and no go i could not get it into gear unless i revved it really high then i could get it to go. It did it for all 5 runs now on the freeway home it seems really still and it doesnt just seem like its at high rpms. I believe that maybe the shift linkage is coming loose and not positioning it to go into gear straight? What do you guys think?

So basically you beat the living **** out off your car and now its having a hard time going into gear? I did that recently and it turned out I had a leaky MC and a bad clutch.

i would not say beat the **** out of it, it started doing this after the first run! I know i have a worn 3rd gear synchros but who in the honda world doesnt. But this shouldnt have anything to do with all the gears seems maybe the clutch is not dis engaging?

First of all, bleed your clutch.
Also, check your master cylinder and slave cylinder for leaks.
MC- look under the dash along the firewall behind the clutch pedal for brake fluid dripping slowly.
Slave cylinder- place a piece of cardboard under your transmission.

If neither of these are leaking and the fluid level in your MC reservoir is not dropping, then chances are you need a new clutch. This would be my guess if you are doing 7500 rpm clutch drops on an OEM clutch. Consider upgrading to a Stage One clutch as well.
