• Two Lane Blacktop

    Color Me Gone, Baby!

    "What kinda sounds you like? Rock, soul, hillbilly...western?" That's exactly what any courteous GTO Judge driver should ask his passenger when reaching for the 8-track stash in the center console. Thanks to this YouTuber, we can all enjoy some Two-Lane Blacktop to get our Monday afternoon started right. This sequence has had a powerful effect on me over the years; back when I owned a slushbox-equipped Volvo 144, I would stomp on the gas, wait about ten seconds for the downshift, then scream "Color me GONE, baby!" as all 118 Swedish horses kicked- or rather, trudged- in (for some reason, it never occurred to me to do this while driving my GTO).
