Default dumping the clutch issue..

So I barely beat on my car and today I wanted to roast the tires... I Rev up the motor, dumped the clutch...and no tire spin and my clutch pedal pretty much stuck and it smelled like burnt *** hairs that dingle berries on em... has anyone else gone through this or know what it could be? I just got my transmission replaced under warranty due to the 3rd gear grind...about 3k miles ago... its an 06 with only 25K on it...

Lesson learned.......don't dump the clutch. Your car could explode any minute.......or not.

I wondered if it could be the clutch...its still stock..has anyone else gone through this? For me to bring it back to the dealer would be an issue cause theyre in florida..and I'm now in connecticut for a bit.

If it was done at a Nissan Dealership then regardless where you take it, if it is an install issue and the place you bring it to documents everything, it will be the dealers responsibility to pay for the repair.
