Honestly it does sound like there is an expensive problem with the clutch (unless the smell is a coolant smell or something else totally unrelated to the clutch system).

Lapping at Calabogie Motorsports Park in an FR-S versus 4x4ing in the Calabogie area with a nice truck. Hard to lose with those two choices!
