Alright I brought my 1g awd talon to a shop down the road to get the ball joint pressed, they called me the next day saying it was done but I had to work so I left it there for 2 nights. Everything looked good but as started to pull out I had the wheels turned and it made a clunk sound then again 2 feet later when letting the clutch out. Got out and looked for anything wrong didn't see much so I pulled out and the car would move but only go about 40, if I pushed on the gas any harder it would rev and not move any faster in any gear. I'm thinking they took it for a joy ride and roasted my clutch ? It will drive In every gear but I can only limp the car around.
 
Yeah I'm pretty sure they took my car for a spin in the snow and they arent telling me.. It drove perfect before I brought it, clutch has never slipped before and I haven't launched it ever. Clutch is a bit over a year old. Could it possibly have to do with low Tranny or clutch fluid? Haven't had time to look yet
 
Tranny fluid could also be a possibility if you havent checked it already. Start with the easy issue and work your way up
