Default Raptor tranny or clutch problems

I was stuck in a muddy creek(not even half way up the tires). I went from 1st to reverse about 15 times trying to get out. I didn't feel or hear anything unusaul, and then I just looked down and my tires weren't even spinning. It won't move in any gear it just acts like it is in nuetral. It's not hard to shift and I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS IN THE PAST. It only has about 20 hours on it. I'm araid to tear into it without knowing what it might be so I know about how much money I need. Please don't tell me I have 2001 tranny syndrome. PLEASE HELP, SOMEBODY.. Thanks, Brandon

Check the sprocket nut on the front sprocket, make sure it's still there and tight. If that's good, move onto checking the clutch cable adjustment and then the clutch itself.

Sounds like the clutch. Did it work after it cooled down?

What about the sprocket nut? You may think that is funny but, I've seen 2 bombs and 1 Raptor that lost their sprocket nuts.
