I had a similar problem, after the car was run pretty hard it would take a good amount of force to go into 1st and would take a couple tries before it would engage.

Took it to the dealer and they replaced the 1st gear syncro in the xmission. (also said the fork was slightly bent from the force it took to put it into gear )

Since both 1st and 2nd gear share one collar/syncro in the xmission, I would look in that area for the problem.

this also often happens after a missed or grinded 1-2 shift
