I would call them back and see what they say about what can be done salvaged if anything. My guess is that if it's not glazed it will be soon if you keep running it hard.

Either way, you'll most likely need to pull the clutch out and inspect it. Make sure you give that flywheel a surface to bite against.

A DA works good

I have the Exedy Triple Disc and love it. It ran about $1600 with the flywheel, but it'll take everything you dish at it and still feel stock!

Tilton 7.250 twin disc. I have a little less than 1K in it and the 11 lb CM flywheel and it DOES NOT slip. Pedal effort is less than stock and it is pretty easy to modulate (when it's cold).

Ernie what kind of mileage have you done on the clutch in that time ?
Is it very on/off or can it be used on the road as well. I been looking into getting one.
