Hydraulic Clutch Problems

Hey I have a 1988 rx7 non turbo. It has stage 2 centerforce clutch that is pretty new. Today when I was driving something weird happened. When I hit the gas it doesnt seem like the clutch is engaged right or anything, I hit the gas and I barely move it just revs, but it still moves enuff to get around. If anyone has any clue what is wrong with my clutch system please help me out. If you want more information about the problem let me know.

Internal problem. If it's not disengaging it's in the hydraulics....if it slips look inward. The clutch springs will keep it engaged if the fluid, master, slave have an issue.
