Congratulations, you've broken a trend. For years it seemed that every magazine road test of a Lamborghini included some apology for the Lambo not making the rated power or just plain breaking down during testing. For once, some other car crapped out. Even if it was driver error, the Lambo has made it through one challenge in a single piece. That's big for the Italians.
Better hope you only fried the clutch. From the smell of things, that appears to be at least what's happened. Over revving on a downshift is a sure fire way to bend valves and damage pistons. If the engine seems to run/sound normal you're likely just looking at getting that shiny smooth clutch you just created replaced.
That was my major gripe about the GTO. The T56 was not a finesse transmission. It handled the torque just fine but a 4 -3 downshift entering a fast turn often found me bouncing expletives off the windshield. Good luck.
