Every once in a while I will get on her hard like tonight when I was getting on the highway. I floored her up to 80 and it smelled like something burning. As soon as I let off, it went away. What could it be? Belts, muffler coatings?

I'm auto. Though last week when I got my oil changed they checked my transmission fluid and it looked kind of brownish. They said it needs to be changed the next time I do oil.
