My car was doing this, and it turned out to be a slightly leaky clutch master cylinder.
Edit: Billman, just read your post. Man you saved me a lot of hassle and probably a few hundred bucks lol.

Keep in mind, 95% of s2k clutch master cylinders leak. Chaging the master would be pointless.
I find changing the fluid every 5k miles or so is extremely beneficial. You don't even need to bleed it. Just suck out the res, clean it out with paper towels, and fill it back up.
The leak will stop, and the car will shift better. This has proven on hundreds of s2ks over the years.

I just suck out the res and refill it. It got low once and refilled it, and it has not gone down again. Shifting is improved too
