Best music for driving fast is no music. You have more important things to concentrate on.

True. When I go for a spirited run in the mountains I turn off my headunit and listen to the music of my car.

Nothing like cruising on a sunny day with Marley or Tom Petty blasting on the radio.

Dj'd jazz like Greyboy Allstars and Zero7 is kickarse too.

I listen to Christopher Lawrence... his albums are awesome to listen to. Talk about driving fast. Just listen to the music and he'll put you in trance.

Most of my speeding stories involved either Funker Vogt or Die Krupps.

Fred, try 140 +/- mph (limiter on G) and Ministry's NWO.

Pink Floyd is the best cruising music. I always listen to Floyd on road trips.

For going fast, Tom Petty,like vicki said. Running Down a Dream is great for that. Or A Mind with a Heart of its Own.

No way dude. I love Floyd but it's definitely bug out in your room after tokin' out of a can type music. Cruising = DEFINITELY Marley.

ACE OF BASE!!!

or any 80/90's dance music. Nothing like Cruising to My heart will go on the dance mix.

Also Motley Crue's "Kick Start My heart" Classic indeed.

Please, PLEASE, tell me you are joking. I'd pay good money to get that song permanently erased from my memory.

I wish I were joking, but it has an awsome beat for driving. The song sucks but the dance mix of it is like listening to Euro Beat stuff.

I like to play "The Night Rider Theme" then switch to some punk rock. I like to cruise driving by moonlight(I only do this at places where there is no houses) Any1 remember the night rider theme song. Bought the series for my friend on his B-day and we been watching it. Yea but I like to drive with no music at all. Nice to hear that engine take off.

Some good jazz or electro-jazz can really get you going and focused. I listen to alot of classical too, but that's so that I DON'T drive to fast (and cause I like it). Floyd is awesome, but only if you're driving long boring distances. I swear, it makes a 7hr drive back home go so much faster cause you just kinda zone out as you cruise up the 5.
