Ultimate cranked up driving song nominations

Spring is here and its time to crank the tunes while driving. Nominate your current fave--I'm really into Joe Satriani since I saw him in concert a few weeks back so I'm voting for "Summer Song". I swear it makes my foot feel like a giant brick on the gas pedal.

My 911 has no radio, or sound deadening for that matter.

I guess my vote is for "Flat six at 6000 rpm".

Can't argue with that but my favorite is "Highway to the Danger Zone" - Kenny Loggins.

Here's some of what's on my driving mix. I can't recall the others.

"Desire" and "All Along The Watchtower" U2
"Brand New Cadillac" and "Death Or Glory" The Clash
"Church Of The Poisoned Mind" Culture Club

Don't take the "Death Or Glory" one literally in your 911.

"I'm in love with my car" "Far bottom girls" - Queen

Uh, I think it was Deep Purple did that song that went... "ain't nobody gonna take my car gonna drive it till the end" (I probably butchered that).

Santana - Abraxes - the entire album.

Lynard Skynard - Do I need to say it? "What song do you wanna hear?"

Yeah, I'm old school

Which version? I like the Johnny Bond version over the Commander Cody & the lost planet airmen version, which gets the most airplay...a must play before that is "Hot Rod Race" by Jimmy Dolan...
