Default Clutch feels mushy when driving hard

Whenever I drive the crap out of my car, even if I just book it from the lights and go on a quick run up to 180km'h or something, after about one or two hard shifts my clutch pedal sticks to about an inch off the floor and feels extremely mushy and not at all confidence inspiring.

Do I need a new clutch? already? or is there something else that could be up like checking hydraulic fluid or something.... i dunno i need help!

my car is stock by the way. and in town and "spirited driving" the clutch feels fine. but when i giv'er it starts to suck real fast. its not slipping tho.

you might need a new master or a good flushing.
