What songs get drivers going

For the second year in a row drivers picked the music to be played when they are introduced to fans before today's race at Bristol. Sadly, if you're not at the track, you won't see it. Fox would have to pay a good bit of money in music rights fees to show this on TV. Still, you can get a feel of what gets your driver going. So, here's the list (note: Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Mark Martin had fan contests to pick their song and withheld what their choice was until shortly before their introduction.)
