Musically Declined: Stock Car Racing’s Entertainers of the Year, Trying to Win it All


Stock Car Racing and Country Music—two pillars of culture in the Southern United States.  And the two have mingled throughout the years.  So put on your racing shoes, make sure they match your cowboy hat, and settle in for a look back at some of Nascar’s biggest stars turned Nashville wannabes!


The Song: Trying to Win it All by Kelly Delaney & David Gillon


The Star: Ricky Rudd


The Clip: 



The Review: Apparently nobody told The Rooster that he needs to actually, y’know, SING on this album.  He’s not even sing-talking here—he’s talking like a guy trying to rap in vain.  And he’s not even matching the music time-cues!


The Verdict: As bad as sitting in a roasting car in Martinsville for 500 laps.
