Yes yes haha its stomped to the floor. I've made sure. I do hear a little noise when the clutch is to the floor from what I think is the throwout bearing... would that be right? Could that cause some 'sticky' shifting?

I have a mgw shifter which I plan on adjusting tomorrow and I'm praying that a tight fork has been the problem the whole time...
