Were you above 7000 rpm's? J/k junior! Most likely what you heard wasa combination of your front tires hittingand your front suspension compressing to it's limits. You may want to consider replacing your front struts as they have been compressed to their maximums.

i have a friend who has a saleen. i told him what i did the other day and he told me he has a friend with a gt who had the same problem the other night. he said his friend curb checked his rear end tho, and that he broke his rim, axle, rotor, 4:10's, differential, ummm and i think thats it. $2800 in damage. i guess the stang gods favored me that night.
