Default Burnout Gone Bad...Help

yeah so i did the childish act of burning out. i let off the clutch in 1st gear, motor spinning at 5krpm, but no tire spin. so i stop. then smoke rises from the front passenger wheel along with a burnt plastic smell, dont know what it is but im guessing its something bad. I move the car and now 1st gear seems to bog a little bit but all the other gears including reverse are normal.

Can Anyone Help me? What did i Mess up?

the rotten smell was probably from the brick you lay in your underpants...

what did you mess up? I dunno...maybe you need to learn how to drive?

probably the front brake if smoke it coming from there..open it up...or take it to a dealer...

dont think i've ever hear someone doing this to there S before.

What a question!

For sure it's the clutch!

No worries it will still work but do it sometimes more and you'll have to change it.
