Oof, that could have ended worse.

I got 2nd instead of 4th at 7800-ish rpm, the over rev in the log was 9820rpm. One of the buttons that holds the friction surface of the pressure plate got ejected so the clutch pedal stuck down so I couldn't pull the car out of the over rev.

I've talked to a few people with the swap that've had it running for a while, they all have the same slop but haven't taken the shifter off to see if it is in the pins to shift selector rod. I think the selector rod design is flawed.

That said, on Friday I wrote an email to KPower outlining the issue and also overnighted another one that should be here this week... I don't have time to deal with a fix otherwise right now, the car just needs to survive 5 events over the next two months.
