Thumbs down clutch shot or somethkng else?

Upon further consideration yesterday and driving more I'm not sure if my clutch is slipping or glazed over or if I'm having another issue. I could be driving down the road or highway. If I leave it in gear and punch it, it revs up and starts to slip then catches (sometimes after only a few hundred rpms) sometimes worse then others. But it seams if I'm droving down the highway and drop from like 5th to 4th or 3rd and punch it. It grabs ands goes just fine. That makes Zero sense to me. Its a exedy stage 2 clutch with maybe 40k on it. 3puck design. Also my pedal feels a little weird to me. Or maybenot so much weird bUr just not the same as new. Someone told me if I bleed the clutch it might fix then issue? Is that true or could be at all? Where is the bleeder for the clutch? Thanks chris

The clutch is under the most stress in 5th, not 3rd or 4th. Sounds like the clutch. How many miles on it?

Stop flooring it in 5th or at high rpm's unless you want to wear out your clutch. I'm guessing your engine isn't stock?
