Default "Clanking" sound with rear brake

When I lock up the back tire with the rear brake, If I let the rear end slide to my right, there is a metal clanking sound. It only does it when i let the rear end slide to the right. If I make it drift to the left, it doesn't make any sound. Anyone have anidea what's making this noise?

This sounds like a tightening issue if you ask me.

if you don't pull in the clutch the rear wheel can hop under engine braking, giving you a hammering feeling+sound from the back. I don't think this should be side-specific
