I just had a monster stage 2 setup with Tick Master cylinder and bleeder installed in july and i was just checking my fluids yesterday and my clutch fluid has some black gooy **** in it. The damn **** only has 2000 miles on it i havent raced it or been hard on it idk what that black goo is ? guess i need to clean it out good as possible.

Most likely since its was fairly new its just the petroleum jelly or whatever it is they assembly the slave and master with. Its normal on new parts. Just suck the stuff out or flush the system.

Also, the fluid in the clutch has nothing to do with the trans itself. If there is junk in the clutch fluid it is only in the clutch hydraulics, not the transmission.
