Angry clutch failure

I am very upset right now i was driving home from my buddies house and did a little burnout in front of my house only did second gear and didnt tach over 3000 now it wont disengage im thinkin it is the throwout bearing but i am extremly dissapointed right now regardless i am not exceeding the horsepower of this clutch by any means it is rated at 600 hp/1100ft lbs and i dont even think i am at 350 horse at the moment.

man thats no good, get under your truck and pull the two nuts off your hyd cyl and see if its stuck down there ive seen two that the hyd lock up easy fix too but get the hole kit if thats it so you dont have to bleed it, hopefuly its in easy fix and not the clutch
