Burnt clutch smell?
i was wondering what you guys would compare a burnt clutch smell to?
I had a centerforce stage III clutch and flywheel put in and I broke it in for 500 city miles and decided to start womping on it some last night, after a quick little 10mph to 75mph run I smelt something that kinda smelt "skunkish" driving down the road and I didn't spin my tires... If it is the clutch then I can't believe it, suppose to handle 600hp and I have 420 right now?

My car would have a strange smell sometimes. Pulling into the garage after hard driving or even nomal driving. I actually looked around under the car to see if I had hit something once. Never smelled anything like that from a new car before.
