Possible DCT Problems

OK guys went to the strip thursday night did a total of two runs
the first went fine trapped 118mph and did 12.8 in the quarter mile
(havent drag race in years) second run my car completely died and the end of the race it just shut off. I tried to restart the car but it wasnt cranking
got out and i had smoke coming from under the car and a really bad smell like an electrical fire. i still could not get the car started and no errors codes showed up so i had the car towed to the dealer once we got there the car started no problem like nothing was wrong pulled it into service
They still havent looked at the car but they say it smells like a burnt clutch
I forgot to mention that i have an ess vt2 625 kit installed two months ago and i have 16000km on the car. My question is guys like Img M33 Drew And 1sickm
who normally Drag the car have you ever experienced something like this before would love your input i dont find it normal that the clutches fried so easily.Now im waiting to see what exctaly the dealer will tell me
