"sticky" clutch
my roadster is an 05 with a lil under 38,000 miles, recentely iv noticed after iv cruised for about 45 mins my clutch pedal seems too get "sticky" and by that i mean when i push the pedal down to switch gears when i let go its slow to to come back up with alot more slack and not where its suppose to be. once i let the car cool down it seems fine. does anyone know why this is happening? is this an indicator i might need a new clutch soon?

Check the engine/drivetrain forum. This is a general transmission issue, not specific to the Roadster. There is little traffic in here, you'd be better of to post in the proper forum.

Happened to my 05 too. Found the solution in these forums and worked for me ... Flush the clutch fluid to get rid of oem stuff and refill with Motul 600. Higher heat tolerance apparently made all the difference.

I also had this issue.
Very simple fix, get the new aftermarket clutch line, I got the Forged Performance one for around $75.00. Change the oil to a more heat resistant one and the problem is gone.
Best low cost mod I ever did
