Default what the hell did i do to my car?

OKAY.. i'm at the track racing my car, on the first run the car had problems.

Its a stock b16a, we video taped the run, and you can hear the clutch make a phphphph noise, then followed through with 3rd grinding 3 times in a row and not allowing the car into gear. So i get through the quarter mile and slow down and boom, i have no clutch, well its barely there.

so we bleed the clutch line, and it fixed that problem, BUT the only thing it didn't fix was when i take off from a dead stop, the whole entire car shakes, plus its harder, MUCH harder to shift. also, it feels as if the throw as gotten alot shorter. All motor and tranny mounts are fine, none are broken.. the clutch feels fine now after it being bled.. i prolly messed up the syncros.. but what else could of happened?

The situation sorta happened to me.

Took out the clutch and what do you know a metal piece that holds one of my disc springs broke off and was jammed between the pressure plate and disc.
