Default Need help FAST!

The other day I was driving on the highway and I got it up to 125MPH and I ran it for about 40 seconds...About 20 minutes later, I stop at a stoplight and my car starts shaking a little bit, I didn't floor it but I gave it some juice and then next stop light I came to the whole car started shaking like an airplane at takeoff. The whole ride home it shook regardless of it being in Park/Neutral or drive. It shakes less when you accelerate but it not much of a difference. I was thinking that maybe it was the engine mounts? or maybe it is a bad fuel injector? does anybody hacve any idea as to what it could be!? Please Help!!

Could be a lot of different things, it is hard to say what it could be.. Could be the motor mounts, could be that you dropped a cylinder. I would get a compression check just to rule that out. My motor mounts look terrible, but I have no ploblems like that, I need to replace mine pronto..
