So I'm at road america for the big vintage races and am having transmission problems. My transmission will not go into 1st or 5th. 1st is not a big deal, but fifth is since road america had such long straights. Two questions:

1) is there any reason this would be linkage related opposed to something I internal?

2) any chance someone has a spare gearbox in the vicinity of road america?
