Recommend me some good, fast Driving tunes

I know there's a thread on driving music already, but i'm specifically looking for good, fast paced songs that make you want to floor it...so far I have

Social Distortion - Reach for the Sky
Bloodhound Gang - Along Comes Mary
Pixies - Rock Music
The Offspring - The Kids Aren't Alright

So what else do you got for me?

I know I just posted a White Stripes thread but I love slamming the pedal to Black Math.

I always find myself speeding when Speakers Push the Air by Pretty Girls Make Graves comes on.

Kids aren't alright? No, no, no. If you are going with Offspring on a driving CD, you have to go with Bad Habit off Smash. It is all about road rage. Their later cd's can't touch the speed and adrenaline of Smash or Ixnay on the Hombre.

On top of that:
Primal Fear - Formula One

and not so much fast, but a great song about racing:
Cake - the Distance

Queen "I'm In Love with My Car"
Fear Factor "Cars" (Gary Numan cover)
Sammy Hagar "I Can't Drive 55"
Iron Maiden "Running Free"

These sound like they would be good songs to drive to (IMHO) -

"Vertigo" - U2
"LA Woman" - The Doors
"Hot For Teacher" - Van Halen (well....the intro at least!)
"White Wedding" - Billy Idol

Metallica's cover of "The More I See" always gives me a heavy foot.

Funny you should mention "L.A. Woman" and Billy Idol-when Idol's cover of the song came out, on the radio the DJ said it makes you drive faster when it comes on.
