Vibration when take off

Westfield Hayabusa Gen 1. No reverse system - straight through prop.

When take off from junction getting a worsening vibration/rumble - at low speeds. No vibration when driving normally or accelerating. This only happens from a standing start. It is fairly noticeable now, but strangely only evident when accelerating from a junction/stand still.

Any ideas guys? Anyone came across this or similar before?

on a standard engine setup the first thing would be to
check engine/gearbox mounts

but on a bec... it might be all solid mounts - still check them and the diff mounts too

Could be an unevenly worn clutch, I had this on the Fiesta. I replaced all the engine mounts but really it just needed a new clutch.

Check the propshaft bolts, from what I've read in the past they have a habit of working lose at the engine prop adapter.

And the prop adapter nut/bolt.
