Default Tranny or Rear?

Hey guys, I was doing a couple of burnout videos and I think something broke...The car is still drivable, but if I give the car some gas it has a delay before it catches of like 1500 rpm....it'll rev, THEN catch. It also shudders a lot when up shifting, is hasn't done it before. Do you guys think it's the tranny or the rear?

Couldn't tell ya, it was on when I bought the car....now that I think about it the clutch is a bit easier to push in than it was. Clutch?

very possible bro. the shudders can be what is know as chatter and is a common sign of a failing clutch/ rough flywheel.

Interesting....well, I'm having the tranny looked at for a reverse problem anyway, so I'll get that checked out as well...Thanks!
