In regard to your other comment, whenever the issue arrises, if I shift to neutral, and depress the clutch the car will still over rev and will do so all the way to 7000+ rpms and in one instance was red lining, I was in traffic at the time, so couldn't coast anywhere, and just suffered through it until traffic started moving again.
I appreciate all your insights, I am hoping the guys who have the car now can help.

Yeah, that eliminates the clutch or transmission as the SOURCE OF the problem. (You may still be getting slipping due to the main issue which can cause that burning smell.) Time to focus on the engine. Specifically the sensors, connectors, wires, hoses, electronic components and possibly, (but more unlikely due to the fact that you've had your car for so long and have driven it for so many miles now) the tune itself.
