Default How can you test bad inner cv joints

My Driveshaft shop axel had a bad OUTER cv joint that clicked really bad so I ordered a new outer joint from Driveshaft Shop. After racing at the track, on my way home I noticed the car would shake under throttle. I figured that joint **** the bed. So I replaced it. It still shakes under throttle. Something else let go. I am replacing the tie rod bushings, and not that I think it is this, but also the upper ball joints. I also will check the rear motor mount since I havent check that one yet. It seems to me that it is drivetrain though. The only thing left is those inner joints. I dont want to replace them till I know they are bad, so is there any way to check or know if they are bad. thanks
