The click click from hell

there seems to be a clicking sound when ever you take off att normal driving, or if you are driving lets say in 2nd gear and then nail it. it seems to be coming from the passanger side and can be heard by the wheel. i had every damn thing off already trying to track the noise and do not know where is coming from. its only doing it under load, if the car is up in the air and the tires are spinning it wont do it making it even harder to diagnose. anyone have any ideas?

Is it worse when you turn the wheel? Could be your axle's CV joint failing, but could also be transmission related.
