EFFFFFF.......for real man...
 






Well based on the limited info yeah maybe....

Does it go away over 20? Does it sound like grinding or just a metal on metal scrap such as a heat shield...
 






could be severely damaged u-joints, it happened in my camaro.
 






yeah, it sounds more like a heat shield scraping but it has drum brakes in the rear. and it dosnt do it at very low speeds
 






slave cylinder gone out on rear drum?
 






so i watited till it stopped raning and took it around the block a few times and the noise is gone? wtf....help?

Without actually hearing the noise, I would say to look for a binding/dragging brake shoe. Does it make any noise while backing up?
