Default Stalled and I saw a little smoke or something...

I stalled my car today and I could have sworn I saw a little light smoke or vapor or something up front... What might this have been?

Is this anything I should worry about / look into?

Thanks

Is your car still having problems, like stalling occasionally?

gee... i hope its not ur clutch melting

just dont ride the clutch too much, and dont press down on it too much. when u idle, do in neutral, not with the clutch down (it wears out the clutch)

Do you think that's what it was?
So when I'm at a stop light I should move to neutral?
