Default Interesting theory....

Hey guys the other night I was explaing to the guy who does my body work "Also a big time CRX track racer" about my crummy 1/4 mile times and my issue with me unable to get into 4th. I said I think it was a sychro problem. He suggested possibly my motor mounts are getting worn out and the engine is flexing at high rpm making it harder to shift into 4th at 7,200. This may be true since I have no problem under 6k, any thoughts? Any recommended motor mounts for a ZC?
