check your mounts too

if they are worn down to much they may cause some knocks or vibs

what exactly is your car doing. Just telling us that it has violent vibrations when you floor it does not help much. Do you mean that your motor sputters violently when you gas it, or that you feel the whole car vibrate. Please, details are very helpful.

great answer.

here's an idea: Put it in neutral, or park, and rev the engine...if everything's legit I'd start lookin at transmission. an alignment issue would make your car pull to the left or right most likely, but there's a chance you threw a weight from one of your wheels, which would unbalance it and make your car shake.
