Default stripping 2nd gears

have a problem with my 2nd gear continually stripping.
I have had others look at it and have been able to keep it working for 1 maybe 2 10min heats then bang..

The engine is tight with correct screws on a 1 piece eng mount.
the servo is not pulling to far, have replaced the 1st gear oneway in case it was holding on. have gone over the meshing many times with many experts but to no avail. have checked the brace and cofirmed that it is tight. replaced all clutch bell bearings and pinion gears twice.. replaced main shaft and 2nd gear hub..

all this on an 8 week old car. last night an other driver stripped theres twice. mine once.

i am running standard gear size 17/23 58/53

motor is an lrp z12 spec2

any ideas would be apprieciated
