ticking noise

[Claus Vegener]

Last week - after run 2 at Knutstorp Raceway
(Sweden) I had a ticking noise when I vas lining up
 in the pit for next run.
Stopped when I stopped the engine; but not followed the rpms.
Switching off the SEAT-HEATER cured the problem.
(And I got a 3. after a BMW M5 and a Lotus Elise)

Hello list,
I have two questions ,First:after start up maybe 30 sec. or so my car seems to make a intermittent ticking noise that doesn't seem to go away for a few (don't know exactly) minutes or until i actually go for a drive.What could this be, manifold,valves or maybe something else? How do I find out?
My second question is my car really smells like rotten eggs after hard exceleration,could this be the start of cat problems or something else?
                                                                   thanx in advance for help
