Race Day dawned wet and cold...but that did not dampen the spirits of this year's racers! As always... ...we party... ...we race for a few minutes...then, we party into the night! It's all about the fun (and the trophy)...

In honor of my neighborhood Tractor (lawnmower) Race, I give you a few race/fast car songs! Turn up your speakers and ENJOY these CLASSICS!! Then, there's this one from the 80's! Sure, these are "car" songs... ...and, we're talking "tractors," so: What do you mean...
