Thanks @strat61caster and @wheelhaus !

I just got back from some testing, and my conclusion is everything is fine. 4 consecutive chirps from 1->2nd

I think the problem is I really have to ROMP on the gas pedal after shifting in order for it to chrip. Otherwise the tires won't chrip or will just kind of "spin" a little bit (kind of sounds like its just pushing gravel/dirt away from the tires) not generating enough chirp.

From now on I'll try to be smoother & more gentle with it thanks everybody!

EDIT: Also when I missed the shift, I don't think I even let out the clutch or even much at all (in second) and just quickly put it back into neutral. It definitely scared me and it did not sound right (revs rose fast) so I had a really quick reaction. So I think everything should be ok if anything probably just burnt up some of the clutch like stratocaster said. (P.S. I love strats I have 3 and just got a Fender American Deluxe std. )
