Car launch... FAIL
 
So, decided to try my first launch.. 4.5k Rpm As i released the clutch i was expecting to shoot off, instead, revs skyrocketed and car didn't move. Swapped into second, released clutch, once more the revs raised and car didnt move. Swapped into third, and finally the car moved- Not like it was going to stall either, it just shot off like a rocket.

I couldn't smell any burnt clutch, so a little curious as to why it happened. Clutch feels normal, and the car drives fine- Should i be saving for a new clutch?

I honestly have no idea. It didnt move AT ALL in 1>2 -- Flew off like a bat outta hell in 3rd tho. Drove it home/to work this morning and all gears are working fine- clutch still feels normal =S

Check that one of the driveshafts havent popped out of the splines.

Whats a driveshaft/spline? And where are they located?

=D Would the car still drive normally/Gears work if they driveshaft had popped out?
