You guys have listed so many good songs... I think just about any song by Foreigner is good! I also think "In The Air Tonight" by Phil Collins is a great "driving" song. Causes me to speed everytime, lol!

Speaking of speeding, "Fuel" my Metallica caused me to get a speeding ticket once. Gosh, that was years ago now, lol. Cop didn't seem to care that a song was "making" me speed! She wrote that ticket without even cracking a smile.

Hey, I'm not trying to start another thread or post out of bounds, but you gave me an idea. Is there a music website or somewhere that you can compile songs and people could log on and buy the cd with the downloads you've put together?

It would be really cool to have a Cat Jam CD with everyone's favorites on there. I thought there were a lot of great songs mentioned. We could mesh all these different tastes into one CD that we could all groove to on our way there and back.

The Matrix, Hackers, and Mortal Combat sound tracks have some good speeding songs.

There was a group around here that ran auto cross events. They would also do hill climbs and other verious events. There was a guy that had a 68 mustnag with a 289 and a 4 speed he lined up got ready. When they dropped the flag he turned the volume all the way up on the radio and it was playing "dead Mans Curve". If you know the park they ran the event in you would understand the why he did it.

There is a down hill off camber air pin that has a wooden guard rail.


Oh and the officials weren't laughing either.
