I call it the "Stank"

So I was having fun the other day hitting the red and I noticed this huge cloud of burnt gas coming out from behind me. Now it wasn't a complete cloud but the smell oh it was there. I was thinking "oh it's just carbon getting blown out" but after repeating my fun run on the second day and also on a few more occasions I noticed the smell again. I'm just wondering if the stank is the normal carbon burn out. Some facts are she's a A/T with 81k on it and it for the most part does it the first time I take it to red line for the day.
