Check the bolts & bushings in the pitch mount between g/box and firewall, and the other engine mounts for that matter.

I have something similar,if I give it some beans on lifting off I get a knocking underneath.If I drive like Miss Daisy nothing. It has been on a ramp but couldn't find anything loose. I might suggest rear diff support when it goes in for MOT in May.

I had this on my blobeye when I throttled on and off fast it sounded a little like slack in the diff. Eventually I found the problem was the rear drive shaft nuts weren't torqued up properly. They seem to have a habit of going off torque after a few launches apparently.

What this man said, I had the same and it was the axle nuts. I re-torqued them once and it started doing it again after 6 months so bought new ones. All is god now
