Aaron Tippin Launches CB Radio Contest

Country Music recording star Aaron Tippin is enjoying the response to his February release, In Overdrive, a collection of trucking song covers including "Roll On (Eighteen Wheels)" from Alabama, "Movin' On" by Earle Haggard and more, including two original Tippin recordings.

"I had no way of knowing how much fun this was going to be when I decided to re-record some of the greatest truck drivin' songs of all time," Tippin said. "Man, we had a great time in the studio and I thought that was pretty cool but this album just keeps getting' bigger and more fun."

After a trucker-filled concert in Louisville, Ky., Tippin was inspired to partner with CB radio giant Cobra, Petro gas stations and the mega distributor Barjan, to create a coast-to-coast CB radio contest, in which Tippin will attempt to send a code from east to west.

On Friday, April 17th, at the Petro truckstop in Kingston Springs, Tenn., Tippin will send his message, and see how long it takes for the secret code to travel to the west coast. Two lucky truckers will win prizes by stopping at the Mebane, N.C., and Wheeler Ridge, Calif., Petro truck stops with the secret code.

The grand prize includes Cobra CB Radio, a Cobra bluetooth wireless headset and a special Aaron Tippin gift bag that includes a CD, concert backstage passes, tee shirts, ball caps and more.
