Default Weird Noise on 94

I bought my first Vette last summer. It's a 1994 Torch Red Coupe. This is my first posting since joining the forum (I've been reading it since last summer). My first question (with lots more to come till you guys are sick of me!): What specifically is the noise (kind of a clicking/grinding/purring sort of noise) I'm hearing from somewhere behind me everytime I start the car and get up to about 5 mph? I'm guessing it's some sort of reset - maybe ABS? I guess I should use one of these cool smileys, and since I'm enjoying a cold one right now - :cheers:

AT around 4mph the ABS does a self test nothing to worry about
