clutch slip into second

got a few clutch questions for you guys. did a few searches and just wondering if my condition is common. My clutch holds great daily driving, and it doesn't seem to mind when I get on it hard as long as I shift slower. Problem is when I pull hard in first and shift to second fast it likes to slip for the a few seconds or until I lay off the gas a bit for it to grab. Is this a common thing due to them glazing? I read these things can be finiky at best. My experience tells me that I should prolly just replace it so thats what im leaning towards. Next question is go gmpp upgrade kit or possibly spec stage II? My car is gm stage 2 with an intake, and I'll probably throw an exhaust on it this year. I'm leaning towards the gmpp clutch for crate engine depot, anyone have good experience there or shipping into canada from them?

I appreciate the input guys.

Yeah mine does that too, they like to slip in 2nd. I don't think it needs replacing, though an upgraded clutch would fix the issue.

I bought the clutch upgrade kit from CED. I called over the phone and they were really helpful. Ordered the kit and got it in 3 days. Also do not order a slave cylinder it comes with one or at least mine did. Clutch worked great until I had catastrophic engine failure.
