Clutch problem!

I was driving along and shifted and all of a sudden the clutch felt different.

Instead of engaging at the top, it now engages down at the bottom, almost all the way down.

Car has 81k on the original clutch and the worst part is I am supposed to do a HPDE with my son at the track tomorrow.

It does shift, no slipping, just engages and disengages way down at the bottom.

I did have the clutch bleed 2 days ago and just drove 160 miles to get to the track area

If I do track it tomorrow am I in danger of damaging anything?

I already have a new DMFW for when I change the clutch, just was not expecting to have to do it now

any ideas?
