Bloody right!

The start of the track with the lyrics "bring the pressure, come play my game I'll test ya" just incite racing in whatever you are in. When the snare drum kicks the beat in that is when you drop the clutch, pedal the bike, push the scooter, anything just to go faster.

The Strokes, is this it
Jurassic 5 for a bit more chilled driving
Whit Stripes
The Hives

And for driving through the centre of town with the windows down, has to be the official Rocky soundtrack
