Re: Name that Tune!
This would be No Money Down by Chuck Berry. I furst heard it on that Rhino Recorss Hot Rod Box set. I later was able to notice it when it was used in a scene in Two Lane Black Top!

Re: Name that Tune!
Reluctantly crouched at the starting line,
Engines pumping and thumping in time. The green light flashes, the flags go up. Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup. They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank, Fuel burning fast on an empty tank. Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns. Their prowess is potent and secretly stearn. As they speed through the finish, the flags go down. The fans get up and they get out of town. |

I told her "See you later" But it's hard to see at all At the bottom of the barrel With your back against the wall I'm not a cool guy anymore Left it behind and closed the door I know you can't escape the past Now I look back and have to laugh I was my worst enemy It almost got the best of me What was I thinking of?

Trick question, RUSH again w/ Little Red Barchetta! Strange words but I used to love the song also isn't today's day/age when he finds the car? Growing up in S.
