Default Shifting problem when racing.

i went to the drag strip 2 days ago to test and tune, i was shocked that when i took off was couldn't change gears from 1st to 2nd gear, it won't go into the slot which i found very wierd, i slammed the gear twice till it got in place, happened to me twice (only runs i took)

and if you guys want to ask, i hot 14.9 secs in a 1/4 mile with the hold for the gear not going into place.

please help
