clutch slipping

when im driving a little hard when i chang from 1st to second and second to third my clutch is slipping. i can see when changing to third but switching to second? i had a sunfire that would brake traction in second. but i guess having a higher hp would make it easier to slip. im just wondering if its normal or should i be looking for a new clutch

Yup time for a new clutch. Just go with the GMPP clutch. Not expensive and works well.

No, the GMPP clutch is an upgrade from the stock clutch. It'll hold what your doing. I'm in the same boat man, gotta do something soon.

How does the GMPP clutch feel compared to stock? I'm probably going to be switching to it sometime in the next year (if I have this car that long) so I'm just curious.
