i would guess the shudder is from wheel hop meaning that you did not slip the clutch enough on the launch
wheel hop can be the cause of broken drive shafts due to the shock of constantly loading and unloading as the wheels skip across the pavement
get yourself some subframe spacers that will help be slower with your clutch engauge that will help as well. the greatest parts in the world will still break if you mistreat them long enough. One of the guys around has broken two shepard trannys on his eclips GSX in one summer his car is not terribly fast (mid to high 12) and the same trans lasts two seasons in Shepard's car (eights) so remember kiddies just cuz you are breakin parts doesnt mean you are making power.
