clutch pedal is broke after i shifted into 5th??

I was cruising down the highway just now and i pushed the clutch in and put in 5th and just after it went in gear the pedal felt as if it lost its connection to the clutch it just swiveles back in forth like a seesaw. Its dark outside so i havn't looked at anything. I'am thinking the slave cylnder broke maybe? I hope it not the clutch, its a center force dual friction. Luckily i was just a few miles from my house and just pulled in my driveway in 5th and turned the key off. Anyone have this happen to them? Its a WCt-5

I've had it happen about 4 times; every time it was the hydraulics, either the slave cyl or the line.

I run the same clutch and love it. Best one I've ever had.

A new slave is $15-25. They are really easy to replace.. i think its only 2 bolts. It takes the longest to bleed the system.
