If you slip the clutch at a high rpm too aggressively, something in the master or slave cylinder gets all screwy and looses pressure. When I took my Altima to the dragstrip, I can't count how many times this happened.
The clutch just sinks to the floor and won't come back up and you end up slipping. Frustrating problem.
SEVERAL 350Z/Altima/Maxima owners have had this happen in routine driving. Dangerous if you ask me!

Happened to me in the G while digging out from a toll booth while on a road trip one time.
