Racing Music

Can't believe no one has mentioned Red Barchetta by Rush or Machinehead by Bush. And there's always Bitchin' Camaro by the Suicidal Tendencies.
 
"Rapid Roy, That Stock Car Boy".....Jim Croce
"Foggy Mountain Breakdown".... Flat&Scruggs
"Autobahn"....Kraftwerk.
3rd movement, Piano Concerto #21....W.A. Mozart

Creedence Clearwater- Bad Moon Rising and Lookin' out my backdoor.
Molly Hatchet- Flirtin' with disaster.

Not songs about driving but great songs when you are driving. Should work nicely with some video. :035:
 
dang, three pages and this one hasn't been mentioned yet...

deep purple - highway star.

yup, another old fart.....seem like a lot of us here! :023:

It is in my case, Ray Lee. I'm so bad that corner workers usually petition the Steward of the Meet to require that I only drive cars equipped with a horn, so they can be warned of my impending arrival. :)
 
Here's a few nobody mentioned, :035:

"Falls Apart" by the Odds (Canadian, mid '90 band)

The First two tracks on the first Ambulance LTD album (showing my age?)
"Yoga Means Union" a very cool instrumental that sounds like a driving song followed by "Primative"

Also, possibly one of the best is "Drive Somewhere" from the Vulgar Boatmen's first album.

Let me know if you want me to burn these for you...maybe you can send them back with the others you've put together.

I gotta add my votes for:

Dragula - Rob Zombie
Jesus Built My Hotrod - Ministry
Jerry Was a Racecar Driver - Primus
Kick Start my Heart - Motley Crue

If you can find it, Behind The Wheel/Route 66 club mix - Depeche Mode (though mixed by some eurotrash DJ).

Ok, a summary of all the suggested songs.... wow a lot!!!

If you notice any errors please correct so I can find them easier!!! Also feel free to vote on your "top 10" as I don't think I can have 60+ songs on the website without it totaly freezing up!!! My goal was about 15-20 tops. :unsure:

Little GTO is by Ronnie & the Daytonas. For Dave B.:"...You oughta see her on a road course or a quarter mile..." :)

And I think it's Hey Little Cobra by the Ripcords.

Yup, that old.
 
Yello - The Race

If You are going to use Queen songs,
"I'm in love with my Car" or
"Ride the Wildwind"
are the two car/racing themed ones.


"beep beep" - The Playmates
"Sparkplug" - The Radiators


And finally, I would think that for anyone who skied in the 80's, "Eruption" by VH would be good warm-up/qualifying music.
