it might be slipping some then grabbing....but how you described it the first time...the only thing that came to my mind was your doubting your driving ability lol

You may have a glazed clutch or heat damaged flywheel. I'd replace the clutch and re-surface the flywheel.

Check your motor mounts for breakage/cracking. Your engine may be bouncing around and that can cause problems similar to what you described.
