Is It Suppose To Smell Like Burned Clutch?

Is it supposed to smell burned clutch when I do the following SEPARATELY:

1. Rev my 996 on FIRST GEAR with the Clutch floored OR

2. WHILE THE CAR IS MOVING ON 2ND GEAR, go on 4,000 or so RPMs on second gear THEN SHIFT TO THIRD GEAR.

My 996 gives me the burnt clutch smell when I do those and I get mixed responses if it's normal or not. I have a Supra as well and it doesn't give me that smell when I do the same thing.

Is this something different on the 996 that you have to treat the clutch differently? The clutch was already replaced twice in this car within 2 years and I don't want to end up doing it the third time.

Hopefully I get inputs in here for other Porsche owners. Thank you.
