Question Clutch Slipping Horribly/Vibration

Hey guys... long time reader first time poster...

Anyway, my clutch was moderately slipping a while back (1-2 months) only in 6th and only if I would get on it pretty hard in 6th .
Now it's slipping every gear terribly and vibrating/shaking a lil when shifting to neutral and rpms go down. I've ordered a new clutch and will be replacing tomorrow morning. My question though, is there anything else that would possibly be causing it to all of sudden perform like ***... and have I possibly damaged anything in the process of driving the last two days? I'm putting around 390hp to the wheels and have barely driven it hard the last few months. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Just get it apart and take some pics and post em up. It could many different things such as worn out parts ot fluid on the assembly.

I will get pics of it tomorrow when my mechanic replaces it. Could anything else have been damaged since it has been slipping the last couple days?
