sounds kinda cool

cracked manifold???

Does it change pitch while turning any direction? Does it change pitch with engine rpm, or with vehicle speed?
That could be many things.

Id check wheel bearings to be honest.
Second one may sound bad but check your transmission fluid for any metallic particles, a bad bearing causing misalignment in the gear to the differential could sound similar.

I'd say cracked exhaust manifold. Also, you might want to think about putting some gas in your Corolla

Wow, that sounds spooky! Gives me the creeps LOL..... sounds like a tornado coming through LOL.

It sounds like the sound is directly related to the engine..... and since it is rhythmic like that, it is probably one of the cylinders. So check around under there, it could very easily well be a manifold leak.

does it make noise when parked and revving the engine? did the noise get worse or time or is it new?

Sounds like wheel bearings to me, dude those bearings are really really bad if that going in a straight line. Does it sound more prominent in the turns??? If so, it's definitely wheel bearings

I'm willing to bet its wheel bearings. Honestly if you don't get it fixed soon, it will only get worse. And more expensive to fix.

Another thought, have someone check all your wheels (drive along side of you). A wheel or tire could be bad and wobbling.

check your tires to make sure that they're smooth and round, also make sure they're on tight. jack up each wheel and shake the wheel around, and give each tire a good punch. they should be solid with no rattling or movement.

it sounds to me like a bad tire or a bad wheel bearing.
