ok will check the rear axles tonite.

Good idea on the undertray Kurt. It is one of the things I thought about this past weekend to check. The other thought i had was that it could possibly be some sort of aerodynamic effect - maybe a stall due to the venting in the front bumper or possibly the rear wing?

"Transient Vibration" - sounds like a Downtempo EDM band.

When coasting, do you ever just put in neutral to take the engine, etc out of the equation?

Beer nuts are $1.39, and Deer Nuts are under a frunk!

speaking of undertray...stupid question but did you check these / make sure theyre good and snug? last year i was black flagged (at VIR??) twice in a row because of "something dragging under the car". back in the paddock i couldnt see anything amiss under there so i went out again. only after the 2nd time flagged did my dumb brain decide to check more thoroughly - the leading edge of the middle tray had no bolts attached. looked fine and dandy at a glance in paddock but turns out it was bending down and scooping wind at speed.

if you have same issue, might be enough to cause vibration...
