Default 700r4 basic question

During hard acceleration (drag strip type acceleration) there is a vibration in first then after shifting into the next gear everything smooths out for the rest of the time. During normal driving there is no vibration present and no clunking during turning.

Should I be worried?

Yes. It sounds to me that clutch plates are slipping.

RACE ON!!!

Don't ask me how I know sounds like a loaded question. Hopefully not a pricey one and hint of things to come. Like I said, the car drives fine otherwise and regular driving is smooth as silk.
