Weird sound when releasing clutch 1 gear

My 2001 Miata is making a weird sound when I release the clutch. I have attached a video. Any help would be amazing. It’s a super Miata clutch stage 2 I believe.

I've also got the Supermiata race clutch. It is a 4-puck ceramic disk which makes the engagement rather harsh and difficult to modulate. Mine makes a similar noise and I just disregard it due to the material it is made of. Keep in mind this clutch is much more aggressive than most other "stage 2" or whatever clutches. It really is a race clutch in the sense that it was meant for peak performance with little regard to streetabilty, noise, vibration, and harshness. I only use this clutch since I'm planning on being around 325-350wtq, and even then I'm not a huge fan of its characteristics.

I cant tell due to your video's length but mine usually only makes noise at the last little bit of engagement or if I let it slip for a good moment while in stop-and-go traffic.
