Default clutch problem...need help?!?

while racing a MACH 1 mustang that I killed, my clutch stuck to the floor and I could only push it in about a inch or inch and half. I managed to drive it home all the way in 3rd gear because it wouldn't let me shift out of the gear. I turned off the car in the garage and could smell burning clutch. Then started the car again and now it drives fine??? is there something I should be worried about and what happened? did my slave cylinder lose pressure or something?????

This is a common problem. You can try to flush the fluid to improve it some. But it is gonna need new clutch & hydraulic's to make it right. Search thru all the posts in here, tons on this one....
