Well, it kinda is your fault... did you admit to them that you were dumping the clutch at 8000rpm? And 8000rpm is pretty high for a clutch dump. And do you realize that you only had 700+ miles on the car? I mean, I thought the clutch wasn't even really broken in til 1000+ miles.

I tried dumping my clutch at 6500rpm once when it only had 900 miles. The clutch did nothing but slip. I thought I read on this board it was because the clutch wasn't fully broken in yet and ready for high rpm dump/launches.

So what is the status of the clutch? Is it repaired by Honda? Did you have to pay out of pocket? How does the car drive now?
