Default Clutch slipping...

I was tightening down my arp crank bolt and i was right at the end and i could have swore my clutch slipped. This is a brand new z06 with ~500 miles on it. Is this even possible

yeah if its in 5th then thats a higher numerical gear which takes more rotations to turn.
if the car was in first it probably wouldnt have done it.

congrats on the broken rear-end sorry to hear that, at least your clutch isnt slipping =P
