search...this happens to many people and there are various reasons why... i believe the most common response you will get is either your clutch is hot...or not enough hydrolic fluid is getting back into the master cylinder...may not be master but i think it is...drill mod should take car of that though...if you don't know what that is...you can do a search to find detailed instructions on it...basically there is restriction in the hydrolic lines...you take a drill and hollow them out....this allows the fluid to flow more freely...and should clear up they clutch sticking to the floor
