Default RS4 3 help?

I have a RS4 3 car, it has a two speed trans and a racing clutch. I was running it for a while today and all of a sudden the car would no longer go... I give it gas and the engine would rev up but the car wouldn't move. After shutting the car off and having the car on the ground I also noticed that the car will not roll back at all. It rolls forward fine but after you move it back an inch it locks. I'm thinking the clutch just blew up but I'm not sure and I don't have time to rip it appart right now. Could anyone give me any ideas? I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Rocks in gear teeth most likely culprit.

If not rocks between the gears then probably a clutch problem...[] Does engine rev freely or is stalls when you hit the throtle? If it revs freely then check the clutch...there's an easier way to find out, does the clutchbell moove freely (try with your hand without starting the engine) ??? The fact that the car rolls forward shows that all the differential gears and drivetrain parts are OK.
