When I floor my car in first gear my car hops and shake a lot. its spins but i know what that feel like but this is more like hopping. I'm not sure I'm if the ball joint or something or something else.

I would be looking at tune first, may be a plug or coil breaking down under load, eliminate any tune problem first.

Do a full tune up, plugs, check coils, ignition leads fuel filter air filter, valve clearances make sure all these are ok first.
