Drivetrain issue?

Ok so I can take my car down the road in 2nd 3rd or 4th at whichever speed and when it hit boost it just feels like the tires are spinning and then starts to wheel hop so I let out of it. It drives perfectly fine normal driving and the clutch is basically new with just over a 1000 miles on it. I do have a Lil hard of tires I drive with only on the street(300 treadwear) it only feels like it does it in the front. Does anybody know what this could be? Thanks

Wheel hop is what breaks things. Rather than letting off, don't allow it to happen. I suggest, in want of a better answer, use less throttle or better tires.

I noticed today when I go straight down the road it has a nasty vibration to it and if I turn to the right it gets worse but if I turn to left it goes away. I'm leaning towards a broke axle the boot on the right front has been busted for awhile and it's never been replaced. I appreciate the offer man I actually took it to my buddy's shop today so hopefully he can figure it out. I'll keep updated

Ok so all bs aside exedy twin disc clutches are junk. The clutch is slipping with 1200 miles on it. Exedy won't help me out on it either even though Ive been a loyal customer with them since I started driving. Oh well it is what it is. Looks like it's time for a comp clutch. Thanks for the input guys
