trans poping

When I start in first and hit the gas,the right rear wheel makes a poping noise and the wheel hops.This only happens if I hit the gas yo hard. Is this bad on the trans.?what is this and what can be done to fix it?

It's just the weak suspension of an f-body, that's all. New shocks and boxed lower control arms should help that. Search the "suspension/chassis" board for a longer answer... search for wheel hop.
