Default rear rattle

since i got my car a little over a year ago anytime i put it in reverse i hear a nasty rattle or tapping coming from the rear. I was at the track the other day and heard another ls1 do the same thing when they did a burn out and put it in reverse back up to the line. It does not sound internal but i cant find it checked heat shields and exhaust(stock) and its an auto

im hoping that since i heard another ls1 do it someone hear has a clue what it is and yes i did the try the search first

It's probably the rear panel that says Camaro. It happened to me, the rear panel was a bit loose. I figured it out after spending weeks loosening, tightening and inspecting the exhaust parts, tail lights, spare tire etc.
