Question Damage or protection!? Clutch/transmission/vdc

Hi guys!
Last night I tried doing burn outs and it seems like my clutch is damaged.
When I put it in 2nd gear, the car became 'sluggish', its like the clutch doenst fully engage, the car doenst have full power and the rpm's cant seem to get over 5000. Same feeling as if I would go from 1st speed to 6th.
After it happened, i stopped the car,put it back in 1st and the car respond normaly.
Later that night I've experienced the same issue under same circonstances.
Both time I did get the burned clutch smell and VDC was off.
The day after I did all the possible test on the clutch to see if it was damaged, even let my mecanic test drive the car and didnt find anything wrong with it ( he was driving it hard without letting the wheels spin.)
I'm confused, is it my clutch giving me problems are is it the trottle cutting out becsuse i went too hard on the high revs?

+1

But i did do it once for fun and i had my clutch slip on 3rd gear twice. I took it to my friend's shop and clutch is perfectly fine. I think its just our OEM clutch sucks honestly

Hey! If you can afford it, do what you want. It's your car. If you can't afford it, don't be a fool. It's not a civic.

The worst problems are the ones that don't show when you take it to a mechanic lol.
