power steering problems......please help asap.

ok, here is my problem,

one day i was taking a shortcut to a friends house that involved a little dirt road made by me.

my friends all wanted to spin some brodies cause it had rained the day before, so i did, only problem is there was a small hill that i was doing it on, nothing big but a small hill none-the-less.

after i was done my power steering was EXTREMELY weak, almost non-existent if i didnt give it gas. and the power steering fluid smelled burnt,

what do you think happend? do i need new p/s or do i just need to flush and fill the system?
thanks
wade

Check the fluid level and your belts first.
