Ahh - that happened to me once too, in my Datto 1200 Coupe! Many years of abuse and burnouts, then driving sedately and notice a whirring and clunking noise. Thought it was the exhaust touching the body, continued driving for the day. I got home, had a look under the car and 2 of the 4 bolts holding the tailshaft on had been sheared off. Put some new bolts in and drove to my uncles work for him to look at it. 2Km's from there it goes BANG, and then BANG BANG BANG so I pull over, have a look, it appears OK so I driving the remaining 2Km's. Turns out that one tooth had sheared off, I'd kept driving and then the next one snapped, hence the loud banging.
Totally buggered - diff housing was full of metal bits and the Crownwheel and pinion badly damaged.
