your clutch was probably slipping. on a good clutch, if this happens, it doesnt mean its 'fried'. for the next few hundred miles, take it easy on it(no donuts). it glazed over, and hopefully you can get that glazing off.

after you had the smell/slipping, has it been slipping since then? a few months ago i did a pretty crappy launch on my 06, clutch slipped, smelled like butt. it still grabs strong.
