Default Is this a bonafide 3rd gear pop-out??

I was driving today, I came up to a stop sign, put it down in 2nd and rolled through the stop sign (LOL)

Then I hit about 3,000RPM in 2nd and I shifted into 3rd. Clutch was fully down on the floor and as I attempted to move the shifter into 3rd I was met with resistance and a grind vibration ensused (I dunno if it was audible, I had the radio up and the windows down) 3rd gear would not engage.

So I put it squarely back in N, revved up a little bit to match 3rd and put it back in. Went in perfectly.


That's only the first time I think I've had that problem, and I'm damn sure I was on the clutch as I don't hot foot my car.
