loud clunk noise during luanch?
I was coming out of a gas station, and turned a little to tight and my back rear tire ended up going over a curb and coming back down hard. ever since then when ever i make a complete stop and give it some gas, a loud clunk comes from under the car somehwere, and it doesnt sound good 
So if any one has any idea what it could be, thta would be apreciated

Only when you take off? Doesn't happen when you put the car into gear?
Since you did run over a curb, try the simple things 1st. Look at the rear suspension and check the swaybar endlinks, bolts etc. If nothing looks damaged or out of place, I'd start looking at the transmission mount.

Look at your trans mount. The stupid blob of spooge that they used will break if you look at it too hard; you probably scared it when you went over the curb. Get a polyurethane one and fix it permanently.

My guess would be the trans mount, I broke several stock replacements, then got a poly one and I aint broke it yet.

If you go to check your trans mount, I would just take it off instead of visually inspecting it. When I looked at mine, it looked ok but when I took it off, it came out in 2 peices.
