Default burning rubber smell

Tonight i was at a friends house and when i left i was past cerfew so I drove pretty agressively, and i noticed a burning rubber smell. This has started about a week ago and only happens when i drive it hard. Any ideas what this could be? I never noticed it before until recently. Again, this only happens when accelerating fastly. burning belt?
