Singer/songwriter Toby Lightman, classically trained on violin and self-taught on guitar was charged with performing the theme song for NASCAR on Fox in 2008. Lightman was previously most known for her song “My Sweet Song” which appeared on an episode of Boston Legal , an episode of Bones and the soundtrack to PS. I Love You.  The song NASCAR LOVE (Let’s Go Racing) features iconic and catchy lyrics that speak to many NASCAR fans:

"Love it when it’s four wide, love it when it’s fast, Love it when the leader’s caught, the pack is moving past, Love it when they’re making lots and lots of noise, Can’t wait to hear DW. say ” boogity, boogity, boogity, lets go racing boys.”"

Lightman’s most recent album was released in October of 2014: Every Kind of People.
