Judder under hard acceleration

My car seems to have developed a judder under hard acceleration once the revs pass 5k.

i have no idea what is causing it but the noise is coming from the front left.

I have recently had a new wheel bearing fitted to that wheel and it was fine until I went drag racing yesterday and very hard acceleration in 1st gear seems to have caused the issue, I was only revving to 2k for the starts.

Any one got any ideas or things I should check.

Your main engine mount would be a start mate on the left hand side when you open the engine bay. The next one would be your dogbone mount which is underneath the car.

I've never heard of the top gearbox mount going but that one is situated under the battery

Just got my dad to take it for a spin, he thinks it is probably one of the engine mounts.

Yeah the engine moves, it looks like it has been trying to jump out of the top mount, all the mounts look like they are in good condition which is a bit odd. the juddering is really more of a knocking sound and it is probably manifold into the subframe.
