Could it be a pressure plate problem or something?

Clutch seems to be fine. And when it's depressed, it moves about 5-7 mm or so.

Car seems to vibrate when going from a stop.

That's what I'm thinking. I just tried messing with the clutch adjustment, but that didn't do anything.

Yeah it got really bad when I tried pulling out of the driveway. It started making some kind of weird noise. The clutch is a 1000 miles old and the throw-out bearing is a brand new German one.

And I didn't launch that hard at all, so it's not from the drag racing.

I guess I'm off to Kermit's for a pressure plate tomorrow.
