Default sparks?

Hey guys i have a 94 gt with a manual tranny and whenever i really get on it, i hear kind of a grinding sound or a scraping sound and when i was doing a quarter mile my buddy that was watchin said there were sparks comin from the bottom of the car when i hit it, it only happens when i really get on it... any ideas of what could be wrong?? my buddy said maybe bad motor/tranny mounts allowing the driveshaft to move and scrape against something say maybe exhaust?? i NEED answers.. thank you

Plus 1 on what adder said


but as far as your driveshaft goes, it could be hitting your e-brake cable bracket. Mine did

you should make a video of it before you fix it, i would like to see that , jack the car up and look for something that is grinding or rubbing then you will know what it is!!!
