When I'm driving my car it does not like to go into fourth gear. Every other gear is fine except fourth. The only way it does go into fourth gear is if I shift as if it's going into fourth, but it goes into 2nd instead. I pull it out, then slide it back into fourth and it goes into gear. Any ideas what this could be?

There is also a rolled pin inside the tail shift where the rod enters the trans. Covered with an acess plate.

We replace that pin with a hardened allen bolt.
solves the problem permanently for track use
