I decided to beat the shit out of my car for a few minutes to see if the clutch would slip.

I think it was just wheel hop, but there's this place in Bellingham where you can stop fully before getting onto I-5, so I reved it up to about 4.5K and launched. Broke traction and heard/felt three bangs as the car began to step out to the right before regaining traction.

Was that the clutch or just wheel hop?
