ever since i bought this car i have had bad experiences!! well heres another one, the clutch got drastically lighter.

heres the story,(dont ask me why but it happened)

i launched out of first at 4krpm. and then i shifted into 2nd and the rpm was still high. anyway i stopped after that and i smelled something burning. i didnt run it for long. i think i "burned my clutch". the clutch itself works fine its just the pressure that was there isnt there anymore. the pedal feels so much lighter and easier to press.

wat should i do?
-should i replace the clutch? leave it alone?
-can i get the pressure back?
-how much for a new clutch? (racing and stock prices)
and about how much for installation at a shop??

help me out!!

I have that spectial "cluch" smell once in a wile when I take off fast, or sit in seattle traffic, unless your cluch is old, (25k + miles on it) then i'm sure your fine, unless you really grinded it. when you lonched did you just skid and take off, or did it really jurk then go. if you just started skiding you probibly did not do much, you do more damage when you slowly get it to click in then droping it.
