Default Is my clutch slipping??

it has been like this ever since i tightend my clutch cable. in first its perfect i could burnout all day lol. but from 1st to 2nd it seems like it takes a long time for the clutch to engage? like it jumps from 2k to 3k really slow. and some time when i try to speed up in 3rd the engine revs but doesnt go anywhere? i think my clutch is almost out but dont wana do all that work to change it if its just because i tightened it too much. any suggestions or diagnosis for me ??

yeah its your clutch when your on flat road and you speed after going into gear does the rpm gauge go up but not the speedometer then speedometer moves up while you have rpm steady at high rpm range? then yes your clutch is going out mainly your pressure plate you make clutch to tight and it warped pressure plate....sorry best fix it soon so your not going on the freeway and clutch final goes out out and your reving up to 4000 rpm and car just sitting there.......seen it happen right on the on rap to freeway, it was sad, does it also take you forever to slow down when you just down shift and not use brakes on a flat road get up to about comfy 3rd or 4ft gear then down shift and see if car slows down or takes forever don't give it gas or brake rpm should jump up and car should slow down if rpm is down at like 1000 rpm in 2 nd or 3rd and your still flying and engine does rev up then yes clutch is going out
