Reid, your problem is in the clutch/flywheel assy. It sounds like the surface 
of the flywheel is not flat, and probably needs to be resurfaced. As you 
drive the car, the clutch/flywheel gets very hot from friction, and makes it 
that much worse. When the flywheel surface is not completely flat, it causes 
drag on the clutch disk, even when the clutch pedal is fully depressed. The 
clutch disk drags because of the high/low areas on the surface of the 
flywheel. Hope this helps,
