HElP ASAP
i have an 2001 s2k with about 50000 miles on it. i was driving it home and all of the sudden when i gave it gas while it was in gear the rpms kept going up but the car was not moving. i pulled off a side road and pushed the clutch in and put it in first. i let the clutch out to start going and the rpms just kept going up like it was stuck in nuteral or somting. i was wondering if anyone knows what is wrong? need help ASAP

Aaaay Bambam, sorry to hear, but I've godda go with Hell, 'boudditt involvin' the clutch, but clutch-toasts usually have you knowin' tha'cher headin' for clutch-doom with slippage n' such.
There were no warnin' signs in your recent drives with the car? Java

Were you able to get the car home on it's own power?

Before you consider a stock clutch, price out a performance with a light flywheel. You might be able to get the better parts for around the same price or better. Honda dealership quoted me $1900 for stock parts + labor. A friend of mine got ACT performance clutch and light weight flywheel for $1000 and charged $600 for labor, saving me $300.
