Hard pull misses 2nd

Hi,

 

I haven't noticed this before but yesterday I did two hard pulls from 1st but on both times the gear disappeared into neutral, first time with a slight grind. The gears are fine normal and fast driving but seems to not want to go into 2nd at WOT.

 

Car has 27k miles.

 

Could this be the engine twisting on its mounts and causing a problem with the shifter? Clutch?

Had this in my old car in 2nd gear - syncromesh was buggered

 

Made coming off roundabouts good fun... needing one hand to hold it in gear, one hand to indicate and one hand to steer :lol:

 

Probably need to get it looked at to be honest mate, but in the mean time go gentle on the box for a bit, and don't hold it in gear to stop it popping out - it'll just make the wear worse
