Comment:

So, my mom and sister went to Atlanta this summer to visit my aunt. While there, they drove over to Alabama to tour the Talladega Superspeedway, one of the most legendary raceways in the world. I gave them this CD full of songs about Georgia, Alabama, cars, auto racing and southern culture to listen to on the drives to and from Talladega. It's kind of wacky, I know, but there's some good stuff on here, and where else could the Shaggs meet up with Waylon Jennings?

Oh my god, I swear this is played full blast at every trailer park in my hometown. Blared from every pick-up driving down Main Street, rebel flag waving high...Not that it makes it a bad mix...it's a great mix...it just reminds me of what I'll remember my hometown to be like.

Amanda,

Thanks for the note! And to think I live in Pennsylvania, just outside Philadelphia! I can't even claim to be a big NASCAR family but my family is totally into it.
