2003 Tranny. Help!

I went down to raceway park on saturday and on my last run the car wheel hopped a little but still went down the track fine. The car is now acting funny. Everytime i take off in first gear the car jumps and makes a noise like something is loose. It feels like the car has no traction for a sec. then goes back to normal.
Did I break my tranny?
Did i Break my lsd?

Thanks

It could very well be. Are you positive you have the HLSD?

Yup. Just got mine back this week after breaking the rear mount. I just had a slight clunk, but I guarantee you its the mounts. Just say you have a clunk. That's what warranty is for...
