Clutch getting mushy at high RPM runs

Wondering if anyone has any ideas about this.

My clutch will get mushy, or even fall to the floor, if I go for spirited drives. I tried bleeding the clutch fluid, but the problem persists.

Could it be a pressure plate problem? Or should I try bleeding the fluid again?

Pretty common problem. I had same issue before replacing clutch, flywheel, pressure plate, and master cylinder. Did it all at once so not sure which part it was.

Most likely a clutch master cylinder (seal) failer if there's no leak.
