Thats exactly what I was thinking because It would only happen only sometimes when I was shifting as fast as possible not realizing I was not letting off the gas before pressing the clutch. When i replace the clutch I'm swapping in a ap1 flywheel or maybe even lighter. Thanks guys!
I dont let go the gas when i shift during a race... i do have an aftermarket clutch and some experience shifting..
wouldn't recommend this as it will decrease the lifespan of the clutch.

Sorry to bump an old thread but I have the same issue with my05. So I do want to remove my cdv and so a lightened flywheel. Are there any other good options besides the ap1 flywheel? My car only had 30k but was wondering if I should replace anything else while doing the flywheel. I will be paying for the install and not doing it myself.

I believe in the clutch area with these cars that the OEM parts are very good, including the flywheel, clutch, and I believe the pressure plate are all fantastic for these cars and a lot of people are disappointed when they "upgrade" to other manufacturers in that area. Of course this is assuming you're < 400 rwhp (I think).

Like Billman said, the AP1 flywheel would be an excellent upgrade. Removing your CDV is also endorsed by Billman (I believe, don't quote me but search for the topic and read his posts). IMO (as well as many others) it's stupid that Honda put it in the car in the first place and was essentially put there on 2004+ models (POSSIBLY very late production 2003's?) because Honda apparently didn't think that the people buying S2000's knew how to drive a manual gearbox
