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: When the Saints Go Marching in, traditional
The Stars: Richard Petty, David Pearson, Cale Yarborough, Bobby Allison, Buddy Baker, Darrell Waltrip

The Review: Another “Six on a Song” public domain offering. The Jordanaires again shine through, but let’s take a moment to appreciate the great musicians on this album. Its kind of like getting a race car built and tuned by Hendrick Motorsports, pitted by a top crew from Joe Gibbs Racing, then letting ME race it.
The Verdict: Decent, mostly because you can’t really hear the drivers.
