i believe i just destroyed my clutch in one burnout =[.. after the burnout it was slipping bad, but still drivable, drove it like 2 miles, then pulled over and left it there and called for a ride=[ became undrivable, does not catch at all.. is there any chance its just "hot" ? i let it sit 10 - 15 mins, and tried again.. to no avail..

but hey.. it was a SICK burnout.

you were probably burning your clutch, not even a burnout

for reals....you slipped the clutch WAY too much...unless it was slipping already, a burnout usually isn't that hazardous.

my T Bird SC still has the original clutch...at 200k.

use it for an excuse to get a clutch to support more power....and use the clutch for an excuse to get more power.
