Your tire could be seperated.. Which would be caused by either Shot suspension, or going over the tires speed rating.

Dumping the clutch while drag racing, or doing it in curves? You have to ride the clutch out a bit to launch one of these. A pinion snubber works wonders, as does a welded T/L brace on the diff mount. SR Motorsports makes a "drag launch" kit, but I've never used it. Something to check out though.

Dumping the clutch is one of the leading causes of differential mount breakage.
