Thanks - enjoy - Michael
As ol @ermax said, a burning clutch smell, while you are driving down the road, is NOT normal, in any vehicle.

I figure you are smelling something else. A burning clutch smells like a burning clutch - nothing else smells like that -

Maybe you have a small oil leak and it's dripping on the exhaust? -
