all this and nobody brings up Beach Boys? These songs defined a generation.
1) Shut Down
2) 409
3) Little Duece Coupe
or Springsteen? "I got a 69 Chevy with a 396, Fuelie Heads and a hurst on the floor..."
Racing in the Streets - tragic, but memorable.
Deep Purple 'Highway Star'. How I didn't I mention/remember that classic is beyond me. Good call.
"Thousand Dollar Car" by the Bottle Rockets.
Someone please explain how I can possibly be the first to suggest 'Bitchin Camaro' by the Dead Mikmen. Or did I miss that?
Another ZZ Top....She Loves My Automobile
skid marks on my heart.... the go-go's.............................. cars.. gary numan

The gentleman I bought my second RX-7 from (Denny) had this in frequent rotation in his garage radio.
Call me weird (I am used to it) but my "racing" music is usually not car related. Pantera's "Power Metal" (showing my 80s glam rock vibe), Alstroemeria Records' version of "Bad Apple" (showing my inner weeb).
But car related song?
Out and about, driving late at night, windows down, radio on
Chris Deburg
BMW 635 goin smooth at 90....
What? No Audio Adrenaline "In My Chevette"?
Well, looks like it is up to me to class up this joint...
No, it's not a good song. But it's important for any jeepadventure.
There are a lot of good ones here!
Ill add Kathy Mattea "455 Rocket" to the list:
Black Sunshine- white zombie
TIL iggy pop did the into.
Dust In The Wind...all Fiats are dust in the wind...
I used to sing along to that frequently when I was the Fiat Guy in the 1980s.
Every other song by Fu Manchu but probably Asphalt Rising

I count your post as the third for that one, but I agree wholeheartedly.
I don't think it's my favorite, but since this is becoming a great list of car songs, Kiss of Death by Split Lip Rayfield:
Turn it up.
Lola.
Cake - The Distance
Fuel - Metallica
ZZ Top: I'm bad, I'm Nationwide
For those that enjoy Rap, these 2 are classics
Big Tymers : "Still Fly" and "Get Your Roll On"
