Default Bad Vibrations

Tonight when I was driving home I had to merge into traffic so I got on my car just a little bit. I shifted into 2nd quickly, but nothing crazy or harsh. When I put it into 2nd it started vibrating really badly. Luckily I was pulling into my neighborhood and I drove it home without having too far to go. When I got it home I took out my flashlight and looked everything over and it all appeared to be fine (no leaks/dripping, nothing looked broken or cracked etc.). I got my step-dad to come and look it over with me and when I started it, while the starter was turning, it was making some slight clunking noise. It starts fine but it vibrates badly--almost like it dropped a cylinder. I do not have a loss of power or anything though. My step-dad thinks its got something to do with the flywheel/clutch/pressure plate. Nothing grinds when I drive, it goes in/out of gear fine, it just vibrates really badly no matter if your driving or sitting still.

Sorry for the long post but I figure the more detailed of an explanation I give the better ideas you guys could give me. I want to take it to Darkside tomorrow but I can't get a hold of them and if they are too busy too check it out I don't wanna risk driving over there.

Thanks guys.
