Jacked something up at the track... need diagnosis help please
I went to our new 1/8 mile track last night and made a couple runs, but the 3rd was a bad one. I took off the line and got really bad wheel hop so I backed off a little and put it in second, but in second I got really bad wheel hop also. Weird I thought, its never happened to me before. So I let off a little again and just tried to coast the rest of the track, but the whole car started wobbling really bad. Friends who were watching also said they saw sparks, dont know if that helps any. I wish I knew how to explain the "wobble" better. Hmm, it seemed to wobble in sync with the rotation of the tire... right rear I believe. Am I making sense to anyone? I jacked the car up this morning for a visual, but everything looks normal and intact. No visual damage. So if anyone may have a clue what I am talking about please let me know.

Hey guys, I havent had any time to do anything besides get the car off the ground a little higher to get a better look. But I saw that the propeller shaft has some worn circles going around it in a couple places where it has been hitting bolts i think above it. But my question is is it because the propeller shaft isnt moving smoothly and wobbling, or is it because the ppf is bent and is hitting the shaft? Any ideas or can either one of those be the cause of the markings. As soon as i can get some help from someone I will risk my life and get under the car while he gives it a little gas.
