"popping" from the drive train tunnel
So I was lined up against a honda the other day, and was like what a piece I'm gonna show him a little somthin somthin... but to my chagrin, I mashed the pedal, and two horrendous "pops" rang out from the transmission/ torque arm/ driveshaft area and my performance bogged... I still beat the honda but only by a half a car length. Now evertime I hit the gas hard, or let off of it after brisk acceleration these stange noises happen.
What is going on with my poor camaro? How long until I break something? I don not think it's the u-joints becasue it is not that consistent!

Okay, figured it out... My car has no rear transmission mount. It looks like there is at least supposed to me a mount... I hope, currently the tailshaft is just chillin on the cross memeber :-(

You are right transmission mount needs to be replaced or one put back if its missing.

Yeah, two bolts on the driver side of the crossmember sheared and more problems...

Actually I take that back, I was messing around with a 2005 SRT-10 Ram... I saw nothing but tailgate and smoke. I'll take that though, if I beat out a 500 horse monster he's got some issues
