Def your clutch. I'd avoid the dealer and have a good indy shop do the work. While you're there, have a look at/ replace the RMS.

If you want to spend time at the drag strip, get a drag car!

+10 on the clutch.

The clutch in my old Toyota Tacoma wore out, and it was driveable, but in just about any gear, if I punched it, the engine would rev higher, but acceleration was not there.

Had the clutch changed, and the clutch lining was COMPLETELY gone.

If this happens, I'd surmise it could damage the flywheel surface, but it didn't cause any problems in my Toyota.

If I were you, I'd look into replacing the clutch soon. I wouldn't worry too much about the flywheel, they can check it when the transmission is off. The clutch is a consumable part - they'll wear out sooner or later.

Oh, and remember that smell. Nothing smells like a clutch burning!

I just replaced my clutch, Dealer in Fremont Ca. quoted $2000. including RMS replacement. I found independent shop in Oakland Ca. who did the job for $1400. So shop around.

Thanks for all the advice. I'm going to replace the complete clutch and the RMS while they have the whole thing out. Kill 2 birds with one stone I figure. Found a shop I use that will do it all for $950.00

950 is a good price. You are going to need a new flywheel too. your old one is going to be terribly heat checked. New flywheel = $900.00
I just did the whole thing with new seals. 2000.00
