That's what it does. Sounds like I burnt that sucker. That's it, no more racing for me. Would an extended warranty cover this, or is that considered regular ware-n-tare and does not cover the clutch?

Not sure if your extended warranty would cover a wear item like a clutch. New clutch will cost you about $1500 (parts/labor).
