looping sound ?

Ok now im sure you all have heard this a millian times but i am new to the ls1 world so bare with me.

i just got a 99 z and when i am cruising there is a lop lop lop lop
sound from the front of the car and it speeds up when the car does and slows when the car does. it has farly good stock tires on the front. and i cant hear it when i excel maybe from the motor noise droning it out or its not there. either way it makes the noise. and it does it when i am on the brake also.

thanx

It could be maybe a bad tire, or possibly a warped brake rotor (or two, or three, or four)..............the front rotors are bad for warping, and they'll cause a "pulsing" sound (and feel) especially when you're braking.
