Do a search on the HR forum. The problem's been discussed to death and everyone knows about it. The concentric slave cylinder is to blame and should be replaced with something more stout. Nissan did a recall on the 2007s but never really fixed the problem. Just about everyone with a 2008 has the same issue (clutch bottoms out at launch).

For what it's worth, here are a few stickies and another thread after a very quick search:
