Default Clutch problem

Club member is having problems with his clutch. Can any of you C5 guys help him out? Here's his e-mail:

"clutch releasing half way during high speed hard driving and
needing to use the top of my foot to pull the clutch pedal back to the
correct position. if i drive like an old fart the clutch functions
perfectly."

On my '99, replacing the clutch slave cylinder cured that problem. How long has it been since the hydraulic fliuds were changed? Start there - there might be a lot of crud in the system. There was in mine after only a couple years.
