What’s Your Favourite Music To Drive To?

I know this isn’t really an original topic but I thought I bring it back up again anyway.

I have found that I tend to discover my favourite driving music by accident.

For example, as I turned on to the Evo triangle for the second time on Friday’s North Wales run, Know One Knows by Queens Of The Stone Age came on my MP3 Player.

The speaker volume and my driving speed increased accordingly. :evil:

This was followed by All My Life by Foo Fighters which almost had me off the road! :shocked:

So, what’s your favourite music to drive to?



Regional Event until the next regional event!
Next Event Title: North East Meet: Wednesday 3rd December

On the way home, at a much more sedate pace, I discovered Hometown Glory by Adele.

Dr Feelgood or 9 Below Zero as a rule so your turn to say "who" now.

Definitely not The Who though.

i found Pendulum were good to listen to on friday whilst chasing various Alfas thru the welsh mountains. Guns N Roses 'appetite for destruction' was a bit of a winner too.

Re: What’s Your Favourite Music To Drive To?

Its been ages since i put the discs in my changer and as such i have forgotten whats in it. I had some funky dancy tune on this morning which made my trip to work at stupid o'clock in the rain more trippy than usual, and flicking through the discs on the way home i came across The Black Keys new album which was played at stupid volume. Especially Oceans and Streams which had me break a few laws.

Made a couple of return trips to France with only a little more than just the Blues Brothers (soundtrack to the movie) in the player...
