Then test it out by coasting in neutral and seeing how it comes to a stop. The normal rolling friction of the tires, bearings, etc. should bring it to a stop, not brake pad drag.

it's normal for the brakes to smell funny after you installed them, and during the break-in.

If you continue to experience this, you may have to check out your caliper. Sticky calipers seem to be pretty common in older SC's.
