I sprayed brake clean on the backside to flush any dirt.

Still makes the noise. Running to Hills today or tmorrow.

Only thing left I can think of is wheel bearing.

I'm pissed, I dont want to miss the cheesesteak run or several meets over the next two weeks.
Do this; jack car up and hold the wheel on the top and on the bottom and check for play. You probably somehow got debris inside the wheel bearing.
