FX300 clutch grab adjustment needed?

I have about 50k mi on my Clutchmasters FX300. Last weekend, I parked on a steep hill and had to ebrake/gas/reverse all at the same time in order to not hit the car parked in front of me. I did a number on the clutch apparently.

Now, when I shift from 1-2 or 2-3 (not so much 3-4 or 4-5), the point where the clutch grabbed 100% has moved about 1.5-2" further out. So when I shift and let out the clutch, it's partially disengaged where it used to be fully disengaged - resulting in a sloppy shift.

Did I smoke the clutch or is there an adjustment needed? If I do a WOT run in 3rd from about 45+, I don't get any slippage. I'm around 250whp/235tq.
