clutch burning smell... HELP please.

Hi,

last week I went for a quick race with my friend's 330ci... It was real fun..but I had a bad launch once and held the clutch a little bit too long.. after the race, the car has the clucth burning smell.. so I thought it's not a big deal.. the smell will be gone, and sure enough it was gone.. But the problem is that, right now, the clucth get burned very easily..
If I hold the clutch a bit too long (just a little bit).. the clutch will get burned.. I don't have any problems in shifting.. it seems that everything is fine... but i'm really annoyed with the burning smell..
does anyone know why is the clucth get easily burned?

yup... thats' exactly what I meant..
Yeah.. I beat him.. but I was pretty surprise how 330ci could hang with the coupe in first and second gear.. I pulled hard when I shift to third and fourth.
