Best Racing Songs/Driving Songs
#1
If this has been done, point me in the direction.

It would require some work too, so if you're lazy, go away.

What if MM made a CD of ultimate racing and or driving songs? For example, the theme to "gone in 60 second" and the lasted alternative song that talks about putting the pedal to the medal. My average speed increases at least 10 MPH when these songs come on, and it's not intensional. This is something that could be sold nationally through this website, and could generate a lot of income. Get SCCA and NASA to endorse it, sell it at HPDE's, etc.

Naturally, there is all that royality crap that we'd have to deal with, but I am sure there are ways to do this.

If we're not that open minded or ambitious, what about just having a list of songs that we all like?

What prompted this is that I'm trying to make such a mix, but I don't know the names of half of the songs I wanna hear. Thoughts?

I like your idea Pete, but might be quite a bit of an undertaking. Have you done any research to determine what it will require us to do?

damn, i've seen a bunch of good songs here, mainly:

Ramones - Blitzkrieg Bop
Steppenwolf - Born To Be Wild
Tool: Aenima
Tool: Sober
Garbage- Special
Stabbing Westard: Save Yourself
The Cardigans - My Favourite Game
Presidents of the USA - Mach 5
Cake - The Distance (<- def. the best choice)

RJ, you forgot VH - hot for teacher
also some others i personally like are:

pearl jam - rats, corduroy, do the evolution, get right
foo fighters - hey johnny park!, new way home, stacked actors, low
system of a down - chop suey, toxicity
liam lynch - united states of whatever

i'm sure there are more, but thats all i can think of right now.

on a sorta related note, when i was in atlantic city a few weekends back, me and my buddies took a break from gambling and decided to hit the bar in the sands casino. there was some lounge band there, but while they were taking a break, they started playing music videos up on the projection screen. i was noticing all sorts of classics from the 90s, and i was like "damn, no bar plays music like this" and then it hit me. for the first time in my life, i was in a theme bar where the theme was a time when i was alive. it was really erie... okay, thats my story.
