Not so famous race.......

Not necessarily a car song, but one of my favorite songs and the movie, when I was young, was The Ballad of Thunder Road. Starred Robert Mitchum and he sang the song. Story of boot leggers in the Tennesse hills.

It was the hauling of moonshine that gave birth to NASCAR. One service station here in Memphis was torched by rival 'shiners. The station specialized in building those haulers.
