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 Songs: I’m Doing the Best with What I’ve Got by David Gillon & T-Bone by Ross/Hanna
The Star: Dave Marcis & Richard Childress
The Clip:
The Review: Hey Dave—nice attempt at singing! You’ve always been good at doing more with less. Just one word of advice—enunciate on “Chevy” or it’ll sound like a descriptor of most of your cars in the late-90’s. Oh, and what’s with “I eat dill pickles”? Hey Richard—nice voice! Just one word of advice—I’m not a racer, but wouldn’t “the greatest fear of a racer’s life” be a fiery wreck, not just a “T-Bone”? Oh, and wouldn’t YOUR greatest fear be Ricky Rudd strangling you?
The Verdict: Surprisingly good songs here—and that’s not the “Tangential Earnhardt Factor” talking.
