Does it still make the sound? Can you duplicate it?

It's a joke. Watch 'Back to the Future' 1/2/3 to understand.

Its really hard for us to determine what that sound was with little info you give, have someone ride along with you and take video if you can get it to make that noise again. If it only happened once and there are no obvious problems then chalk it up to once in a lifetime phenomenon. Maybe you hit a racoon or something.

Haha, guy calls me an idiot for asking him to elaborate, then proceeds to ask what a flux capacitor is. I know a certain pot that is calling the kettle black... end of my help, asshole.

he flamed the wrong guy lol.

but to stay on topic, what was the sound? like a bang or something?

check your engine bay and see if any thing doesnt look right.

what did you launch at? did you just dump the clutch at like 5k?

check your suspension, its a known problem that the stock struts like to make weird noises...
