Hi Empty3,



Yes, you are right, my Vette has all disk brakes.



I noticed another detail: the popping sound only occurs when the car begins to move, wether forward or backward. So I start the car, shift into first or reverse, let out the clutch and then hear a popping sound or two and then no more as I continue to drive. I also tried turning off the engine while drivng so I could hear better. As the car coasted to a stop, there was no popping sound, so it is definately only as described above.



Thanks, Matt
