HELP QUICK!!! I bounced off my rev limiter in second, shifted to third, then tried to shift into fourth and I heard a grinding sound??!!! and I smelled a bad smell like burned clutch? WTF? I just got the clutch replaced and the tranny rebuilt not too long ago (M6)? Am I screwed? How can I check to see what damage is done? BTW, I had no grinding or bad smell after that incident ( it happened about ten minutes ago) Thanks for your help I'm freaking out.

You likely did not do any serious damage.
PS, where are you in DFW?
