Default ET Streets + BROKEN DRIVELINE HELP.

Ok sooooo i found out tonight that an exedy twin disc clutch + et streets and a 4 grand launch breaks stuff.. here is the scenerio can anyone give inputs as to where to start.

Car had been hooking well and just hazing the tires all night, on this pass i launched at 4K car hooked HARD and then i heard a pop, kinda like the car came outa gear. But it was definatly in gear. The car TRIES to move a LITLE when it is put in gear and let out on the clutch but doesnt doo much. SOO im taking thoughts ideas. Ill start taking the rear out tomorow but im thinking left output shaft ?? ive seen that is the one notorious for breaking. If thats what it is i will replace both, any thoughts on what kind to buy / where to buy package price maybe ??
I am going to desperatly try to get this fixed befor thursday so i can make it the drag strip friday with AT&NB in richmond !!! Thanks for the help
P.S. i hadn't owned the car for 24 hours when it broke
