Default Need Clutch/Master Cylinder Advise(I did search)

I was doing some logging with hptuners today and did a run to 100 from a stop. I noticed the clutch started to slip around 6000+ rpm as I was shifting around 6500 due to my TR 224 Cam. I got to about 100 and tried to push the clutch in and had no pressure and I couldnt get out of 3rd. I pumped the pedal a bunch of times and it got out of gear and after about 10 minutes of taking it easy all was fine. I have heard stories about the spec stage 3 not being so great in some peoples point of view, but have also heard great things about it.

Main Question for people with little time I am thinking its the clutch cause it has more than a few miles on it. I was just wondering what clutch I should go with, if I should get a new Flywheel and if I should get a new master cylinder? Or does this seem like a transmission problem (doesnt really seem like it to me)?

my brand new spec is doing the same thing. I am going to put some willwood break fluid in and re set the master cyl adjustment. ANd wrap up the line with some break hose . If that dont work , I will be on the phone with Spec after the 4th.

I have the same problem w/ my McLeod single disc. Its got 10K of hard miles/ track time & 400+ RWHP, it is starting to slip at the extreme end.
Think I'm gonna get a twin disc now. I'm gonna replace it al while I'm in there. All ready have the adjustable master, so thats all good. I just keep the fluid clean w/ regular flushes.
