thats the first thing I brought up, based on a past experience. It was weird and fleeting, a grinding noise after warm up on hard left hand turns. I commented earlier how we can feel things in this car, even slight things. Within a few weeks, I was swapping wheel bearings anyway (long story) and the passenger rear was just a little funky. I could feel a difference between them, but it wasnt "wasted". After the swap the sound never came back.
This issue seems to be worn transmission mounts and has been tentatively confirmed with evidence of an exhaust flange rub against the cross-brace.
Im holding out for confirmation from this crazy racer. :+)
