sluggish 993 shifting

[ky911sc]

After about 30 min at de started noticing my shifter seems very slow moving like old 915 when it is very cold. I can get it in every gear just feels wrong. Any ideas on what it may be? Did not miss any shifts on the track or anything like that. Thanks

Broken down rubber in the shift rod?
Maybe its time for a golden rod from FD Motorsports.

Yup, sounds like it's time to call Darin.

here is some recommended reading
993 gearboxes don't handle extended DE heatload very well.
hopefully this is NOT your problem.

"goldenrod" might help if your issue is external, no help if internal.

thanks for the link.
I am going to pull the covers and check the linkage and bushings. It feels like something like that is the culprit.
