Question weird clutch issue

my freakin clutch pedal keeps stickin to the floor! usually only when starting out from a standstill. very rarely, between shifts... Thing is- new clutch(like 5 months, stage 2 street/strip), and all the clutch hydraulics were replaced when the clutch was installed. Why the hell would it be doing this??? when the clutch is depressed with the car off, I can watch the linkage extend and contract where it enters the tranny, it seems to be moving fine.... any ideas????? It's driveable, but this is starting to get annoying!

That is normally a result of a bad bleed.... maybe a leak in the system... did you replace the hose with a ss clutch line. Iv heard that the inside of those colapes with an after market clutch.. id say bleed it first than try the clutch line

On the slave cylinder you'll see the bleed valve, it's basically just the same as brakes, also check that your fluid isn't low and fill it up as you bleed the system.
