Driving today with my top off enjoying the weather, my foot slipped off the clutch as I was taking off in first gear, heard some grinding and the car wouldn't move. I looked under the car, the axle is moving but the wheel is not. it feels loose on the wheel end of the axle. I am about to tow the car to get it home.

I am thinking>:
stripped end of the CV joint, ( how possible is that?)
Stripped joint on the control arm or loose bolt that caused the axle to be pushed back.

I will pull the wheel and report back sometimes this week..

Wish me luck!
