believe it or not, if your rear clutches (posi) hang,(ex. like due to low fliud), it can cause this problem.

I dont know about rear calipers, I am new to corvettes and loving it, But I have had this problem before from the caliper bolts being loose. When the brake was applied the caliper actually moved a litte.???
