Honda V-Tec

this older firebird came along side of me and wanted to race , so i step on the gas till red line and moved into second , i started to smell this burning oil from the vents so i pulled over and poped my hood , the transmission fluid was all over my inner hood and was vary hot. any ideas?

More information, I mean the only places I could think beyond the seal that it would leak would be, through one of the two axles, the fill hole on the side, and/or the VSS, but if it's leaking or shooting up from there I think you have some problems. You need to find out where it's coming from first.

Wipe everything down as best as possible, either take it for a minute long spin, pull off to the side of the road and take a look to see what areas around the transmission are now wet/slippery.

jus tmaking sure you dont have an automatic transmission right? All I can think of is that a cooling line on an auto tranny burst or something. On a manual tranny the only places fluid could come from is the speed sensor or the drain holes. unless obviously you crack the tranny housing somehow.
