clucth freeplay?
I have my S2k about a year and 5k miles ago. Is a 2001 full stock car. I track it in a small go-kart track about 6 times a year.
About three months ago I have notice an increase amount of the freeplay of the clutch. I put a braided line and bleed the system. The engage work better and feels better but freeplay was still increasing. Today I 've change the master and slave and obviously bleed the system again. The freeplay seems too much. About two inches or more. From top to bottom the travel is the same but engagemnet of the clutch is very down a freeplay is two inches or more. Any suggestions?

Seems like you have an air pocket. Even if you bleed the slave till you are blue in the face, a pocket of air will remain in the slave.
Unbolt the slave, point the bleeder straight up, and open it. You will see you air bubbles come right out, then solid fluid. Close it fast as to not let it run dry.
Enjoy.
