weird noise when coasting

Not sure if this is the right forum or not but not sure where exactly the problem lies so i just put it here. Today i was coasting down a road in first gear (it was a private road and people always ***** if u go faster than 10 mph) probably around 2.5k and a sound like a huge air leak was coming from the front of the car, i tapped the brakes and it went away. THen coasting in third at probably the same rpm it did it again and i tapped the breaks, it went away. It didnt sound like brakes dragging at all. My 70 olds has a leaky brake booster that sounds the same, but its not intermittent like that, it happens all the time. Do you think im just being paranoid and its the brakes dragging or something else? thanks in advance.

Like everyone else said, it's probably just "Evo noise". This car makes more wierd sounds than all the other cars I've owned combined. =D
