Not really "G40" specificly related.. But i have set music i like to listen to when driving..
I was wondering what's other peoples choices when driving there cars?
Maby a chance to pop up some YouTube links..
I'll start, As a House and trance fanatic i enjoy listening to a guy called Joel Zimmerman a.k.a Deadmau5
Here is a wee link to one of his songs

radio 2
not the most inspirational music there..
But if it what keeps you awake at the wheel .
in a morning if i use the car i need something sedate to wake me up.
Don't knock it till you try it - radio two rocks!
Radio 2 for me too when I've got a radio in the car. Cant stand all the crap they play on Radio 1 these days unless its Zane Lowe in the evening, I like most of the stuff he plays. Plus Radio 2 regularly play such stuff as the full versions of The Doors, Light My Fire and The Who, Baba 'O Reilly etc.
At the moment I am currently rocking the latest Pearl Jam and Kasabian album with quite a bit of Them Crooked Vultures thrown in for good measure.
lol i have to listen to radio 1 at work all day..
repetitive FM
yeah like deadmua5 also swedish house mafia and marco v.
cant beat a bit of prodigy aswell specially the older stuff.

Lol. Moyles is good sometimes. I prefer it when Scott Mills replaces him, or when Vernon Kay was doing it.
Driving wise... Lincs FM, ::) ;D
Running tunes... now theres a different story!
perhaps iover stated radio 2
lately i've been liking the maccabees and jamie t. Too angry music makes me drive more like a dick

Ive gone off Jamie T recently. The maccabees new stuff is ok but will never be as good as "colour it in"
Get some Enigma - sadeness on the go for super granny style driving ! lol

If you like that then try out Marcus schossow other wise know as "deadrat6"
Does everyone else feel they drive to the music played? for instance... slow old school hip hop beats!
Tend to drive a little slower and sit lower too... like you is in da ghetto fo real (lmao)

saw maccabees just after colour it in came out... hampered with a broken leg. Needless to say i didn't go in the pit
Can't beat some decent musical DnB, ltj bukem, PFM, big bud etc.
Also, 808 state, orbital, guy called gerald.
Radio Bristol in the morning for traffic updates, And yes, Radio1 in the daytime is wank, can't agree more!

Yeah I saw them at a SU bar in manchester, they were good.
And as for driving tracks....

Ive never really been into driving to white noise (aka clubby stuff - you can tell im an old git now ;D)
When the Ipod gets plugged in, generally its stuff like Feeder, Black Eyed Peas, Jimmy Eat World, Radioheads Creep, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Cranberries and Foo Fighters, etc.
TBH, I drive the best and fastest without music (when im driving say a mates fast car, say a scooby). Enables me to drive to the noise of the engine, and im more aware, really weird but I tend to make better progress because im not hurried into a heel and toe downshift and left foot trail braking, you kind of see the world slowed down if that makes sense. Also you tend to slow yourself top speed wise down, i.e. dont just have it full throttle maxing the speed from one bend to another.
I wouldnt dream of caning a car with the radio on, not unless its on the motorway or summot. Concentration is key.
I know if im going on a long journey I get a CD together with certain tracks on, a lot of massive attack and portishead, coldplay etc, quite mellow stuff.
This is like a night time driving orgasm....

Lol, my track car had no radio, nowt in fact not even a heater. :D Used to love its awesome soundtrack, gutted I dont have any of it few vids anymore :(
Motorway driving down to say PSD or RPM was borrrinngggg ::) Any chance to take the back roads was always a delight. ;D Luckily the drive home every weekend from Marham was A roads. 8)
even when i used to use my g40 daily years ago and it actually had a radio in it i never used it. hasn't had a radio in it for ages, its entertaining enough without one. would go mental without one in my passat though.
I cant drive adventurously with the Stereo on, also find it hard to concentrate when its up loud.
Even tho i packed it up with 2 x 10" Vibe's.
But it pays off when you get a Sunny summers afternoon down a back road and you've got some good music on..
