Was feeling rowdy today and jumped on it for a typical burnout using no brakes. Dumped the clutch grabbed 2nd then grabbed third, never really gave me any hesitation as i played with the throttle, especially in 3rd, maybe 4 seconds total. Got back and I smelled clutch way more than rubber. 1st time I've grabbed 3rd and only the 2nd time doing this with the car. I went back to the place I did it to confirm, after the 2nd shift the rubber marks went away, which I feared. It is Whippled and I may have found it's obvious weak spot. Little more jumpy letting out the clutch now even though it was a little jumpy from day one, which i thought was kind of odd. Ran and shifted fine all the way home. Thinking maybe this winter put a better clutch and everything I can to replace and upgrade as I'm in there. Anyone else run into this "issue". I'm not really calling it an issue as it wasn't made for the whipple, so it's all on me really the way I see it. Think I will refrain from that for a bit!

Any updates on this? I'm in a similar situation except no whipple. I have maybe dumped the clutch 4-5 times and after this last time maybe 3 in a row and I have the same symptoms, and a pretty rough smell left in the car.
