It appears that you have touched all bases as far as the clutch is concerned. Since you track the car, I'm assuming that you have changed fluid recently and are using the proper weight. As far as I can tell, that leaves shifter or synchros as possible culprits. I doubt that reverse synchro is the problem - unless you use reverse more than most people and slam it into gear when you do. Unless the internal shift mechanism was damaged (possible but low on my list), it looks to me like the external parts of the shifter are out of adjustment.
