Default Clutch releasing high

Hey guys, quick question. I was at work and in the parking lot getting ready to leave and i pulled my ebrake allll the way up and spun the tires for like 20 to 30 seconds and now my clutch is releasing reaalllyy high. I didnt dump the clutch and didnt rev it high to get them to spin kinda gradual, got them to spin, got up to about 6500, switched to second and kept revving and revving just to keep it away from redline yet keep them burning. Went to pull away and the car feels soooo much different, clutch releases really high up now. What did i **** up now? lol.

I hate car abuse, what can i say. I think its a moronic, immature, stupid thing to do.

I get annoyedwith people about this **** because i dont have a car, and i wish i did, and to know that there are people out there abusing the **** out of theirs, of course its going to annoy me.

Regardless if you have always remained respectful on the forums, although i apreciate it (i really do), it doesnt stop me losing respect for you, as i have now.

mmmm yea i deff smell a burnt to hell clutch lol.. just so you know next time, yea if you do it again dump the clutch so it catches fast, easing off it slowly makes contact which causes it to burn.. and i dont think your flywheel should be too bad, it might need resurfaced though, which you should do when you replace a clutch anyway.

nice hit below the belt seb lol
