Ok, I don't know if this is a serious matter or not but a couple of days ago I got a little pissed at a guy at the gas station and lit my tires with no problem, and just earlier today I tried just lighting the tires and spinning the car around but it chugged really hard and almost died, then tried it again and had no problem...do I have a tranny problem or is it my emagination and I have a driving problem? any comments will help. oh, I have a 5 speed by the way.

I massed the pedal and poped the clutch both times today and the other day I think I might have reved it to about 2000 rpm

your clutch is slipping a lil bit.... probably still had your foot on it a lil bit. either that or you released the clutch before you whacked the gas

dimebag

or werent giving it enough gas when u dumped the clutch...

maybe you were in third and didnt know lol, i did that once

haha i did that too when i was trying to show off, and im like wtf why are you bogging down now. i can tell you exactly what happen, 1 of 2 things. 1.) your rpms werent high enough when u did that or 2.) you didnt stomp the gas when u let off the clutch, try bringing your rpms up works alot better more spin. my clutch is slipping and i have the same issue.
