So i had never really done a hard pull in my car until last week on the on-ramp to the highway i got up to 170km/h (like 105mph?) WOT all the way and i started to smell rubber burning, the only thing i could think of was the belt but that's brand new any ideas? the smell went away as soon as i let off.

i have a million different smells eminating from my car, my advice, live with it

if it was the belt, it wouldn't have been speed related.
if the smell originated at 105mph, and went away as soon as you backed off, its a rotating part in the driveline.
could have been the rear trans seal, or the pinion seal.

so do yuoguys think i should worry about it? i don't get up to those speeds very often anyway

could have beena tire rubbing on the body as well
