Default Do i need the drill mod??

Took one of my friends for a ride today who had never ridin in it so i went out to do a quarter mile...i slipped the clutch pretty hard off the line a little harder than i meant to (not the best tires so its hard not to spin), i sliped it up to about 4 grand i guess cuz i just wanst payin enough attention well the clutch didnt feel right when i shiftied into 2nd and when i went to shift to 3rd it didnt go into gear, than i realized my clutch was sticking about halway down and i kept havein to pull it out and pump it, i slowly drove it into town to let everything cool and then it went away and clutch started working perfect again....i assume the only reason it did it was because of the heat caused by the excesiive clutch slip cuz its never done it before but do i need to do anything about it or just be more carefull from now on? thanks in advance

yes exactly same problem with me at the track and now the drill mod has solved my problem! but just as important as that is wraping the line with high temp tape, to keep it from heating up!

lowes or home depot should have some, or you can try getting it from autozone or any other auto parts store! i used an aviation electrical heat wrap it worked great on mine!
