You need to tell us a lot more…

But from what you’ve written, it sounds like you’ve got a manual tranny that has a slipping clutch due to overheating/abuse/age etc.

Let it totally cool down, drive it the next day and try pushing it in the higher RPM’s a bit. If you start revving higher without gaining speed then your clutch is slipping. If it connects fine, you may have just overheated it during your burnouts…

Good luck.

buying a new clutch, stock one can be had for a little under $300, and either paying a shop to do it ($$$), or pulling the tranny yourself.

You need to:

1. Stop doing burnouts
2. Learn to spell
3. Not post in all uppercase. because next time I’ll delete it.
4. Get a new clutch.
