There is not much behind the dash that could create a clicking sound, that and I have yet to be faced with a similar concern. Is it a repetitive clicking, and how long does it last? What happens if you have the climate control off. There is the HVAC actuators for the climate system, I am not sure if at key off they go into a home position and then reposition at key up. I have seen some things recently that are affected by the inertia of vehicle movement, in either lift/dive or pitch/roll. Take for instance a blower motor shaft, as the vehicle is thrust forward, this will apply forces to the blower rearward, and possibly cause noise. Since I can't hear it, I can only offer suggestions. I have had the dash out of several H3's, and there is not much back there that could cause a clicking noise, especially on a one time, first launch scenario.
