200 call cat smell is killing me (especially since I have a roadster) any one else?

Have you checked the clutch, slipping clutches smell like dead fish. In 2007 on my then new V8 Vantage I was at a red light and was about to be rear ended, I slammed on the gas and let up on the clutch to avoid getting hit thinking wow - I can't believe how much I smoked the tires - then the smell and I realized I smoked the clutch. Still was good after 25,000 aggressive miles though. It's a really bad smell when the clutch acts up.

PM to discuss.
