Default Does this sound like a hydraulics problem?

In April I had a SPEC Stage III ceramic clutch installed. That was to replace the 2002 Z06 clutch. The first Z06 clutch install also included the 2002 master/slave hyrdaulics. Drill mod was NOT performed.
All has been fine until Saturday. Went to do a short burnout leaving a car show, and when the clutch was released, the car violently shook. The pedal feels very light as opposed to before. Once fully in gear, the clutch grabs and holds like it did before. No slipping at all, except for the tires spinning.
I looked at the fluid level, it was down very slightly. The fluid itself was almost black in color.
Regardless of which gear I'm shifting into the car shakes like crazy.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
