Default Weird Clutch Behavior

Hey what's up everyone! Ok so I've been searching for the past 2 days on here to find someone with a similar issue to mine and I can't seem to find it. So here we go, 2 months ago I replaced my OEM clutch with a 6 puck stage 2 clutch matched with a chromoly flywheel and new PP. I drove the car very mildley for the first one thousand miles everything was working fine kinda of hard to get used to. My problem started when I drove the car hard. When i redline the car and ready to change gear i would push the pedeal all the way to the floor and the car will stay in gear for another 2 seconds and then it will go on nuetral for the gear change. what is the cause of this issue? is it the clutch? master or slave cylinders? transmition fluid? please chim in with any help! so basically my clutch delays the nuetral process for chaning gears...

THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE!

What is the weight of the new flywheel you installed? Heavier flywheels will cause delay in RPM's dropping from top of last gear to bottom of next gear.

lighter for sure, its 17 lbs. and it feels like the clutch doesnt disengage from the gear on time. it stays in gear for another 2 seconds or so and then it goes to nuetral.
