you have an AP1 so there is no CDV. maybe it's time to change the way you drive.

Have you bled your clutch?
It might be the lack of pressure holding the plates together?
i have never messed with my clutch, but it is something you could try to do :/

After a track meet my clutch was slipping and thought i needed a new clutch but i checked my fluid levels first and found my clutch fuild was low.

That might be your problem??!!$$$*

Low clutch fluid or air in the system will cause disengaging problems, not slipping problems.

i think the pressure plate does that...clutch fluid has nothing to do with it.

You know what will cause a new clutch to slip? Improper break-in.

How many miles did you break it in before you beat the shit out of it again? It sounds like you didn't even break it in.

And stage 2? Is this an Ebay clutch?

One of the cylinders could be binding,
or the flywheel could be undercut.

what did the clutch you took out look like?

If the flywheel is burnt it will never be right, resurfaced or not. You are abusing the clutch to have burned it, sounds like you are riding it a lot. Learn to use the clutch properly.
