Default C5 corvette rear knocking sound

I have a c5 corvette with a knocking sound coming from the rear of the car. It is speed based and goes away with a clutch in, or if I put the car in neutral from what I can tell. (Loud exhaust)

*changed diff oil, and inspected. Looked fine.
*new axles either correct torque on the 33mm nut. *new wheel bearings.
*Wheels don't look damaged

Any help would be appreciated.

You say it's speed based, but also say that it goes away with the clutch in. Seems to me those 2 ought to be mutually exclusive. It's for sure not RPM based?
