Default tranny problem

I took my stock 07 vette m6 to the track last night, on the first launch i got major wheel hop i ended up runing a 14.8 at 107 with a 3.0 60' anyway now i cant go into reverse my shifter is super sloppy and it wont go into second. the only thing i have done to the car is an mgw shifter. i think i might have broke the shifter, at least i hope

sounds like you may have popped the pivot ball off the shaft. this is one of the things we have updated in the new shaft we have been sending out. we had a z06 owner in calif. do this under a hard shift. the new shaft has a larger flange and hi temp poly pivot ball. i am sorry this happened but it can be fixed easily. if you have not recevied the pivot ball yet call me monday and i will make sure it is sent out asap.
