Clutch pedal didn't come back up all the way...
So my first time at the track, and first time doing the 1/4 mile. And so I give it some gas and ease off the clutch then floor it while fully releasing the clutch pedal. But it doesnt come all the way back up. It goes about halfway up and just sits there. Engine was at around 7k rpms when I shifted into second, and against it didnt come up all the way. So I stopped shifting and waited until it came back up. So I ended up with a 19.6 @59mph 1/4 mile. Why did it do this? I asked a couple of the guys that were there and they said the clutch just didnt fully engage and was just spinning or something. But maybe you guys can help me out.
It was fine on my second run which I messed up anyway by shifting way too soon and not flooring it. 15.5 @90mph.

Yep, it's the slave cylinder.
The updated slave cylinder does better, but it's not perfect either.
I do find it interesting that my stock clutch now has over 43K on it, even with 2 slave cylinder replacements. Hopefully the 09 will have a different deisgn, and the 07-08 will eventually get a better update.
