Clutch advise please - thanks.

For the 1st time at 7100 miles, my clutch did a weird thing. I attempted a hard launch with low tire pressure and a full tank. The clutch clearly slipped a lot, and the tach. shot up a bit. I upshifted to second with slightly less throttle and it continued. The smell was obvious.

Ten minutes later, after things had cooled down, the clutch seemed perfectly stong. Hey guys, is this the way that the notorious clutch problems began for you? Did the clutch continually slip or did it begin to fail sporadically?

I would appreciate any feedback.
