Question engine smell

AFter I drove hard for a few minutes on the freeway and parked my car at Denny's, I smelled a nasty smell from the car. I couldn't tell where it came from but it was that smell you know came from driving the car too hard. I doubt it was from the wheels because i didn't spin out anywhere to burn the tires or anything. Is this normal or should i get this checked?
thanks

I know that smell, smells like burning rubber after you give your engine a good work out. It never concerns me and all cars do it. I think its just the smell of the drive belts.
