Default New Gto Burning Smell?

My car has over 500 miles on it and it still stinks bad everytime I drive it hard. Like new pipes and/or paint burning off. I assume this is normal but this is much worse smelling than any new car I have ever had. Temp gauge and driving experience is normal but the smell. Any comments or questions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Arrow Have you tried...

driving with the T/C off? That did the trick for me. I guess the t/c applies your rear brakes to stop your tires from spinning.
If you haven't already try it.

Later,
