Wow, one to go!  Does Song 1 have "Spin" in it?

How silly would I have looked if he was a security guard at the Bowie mansion?

No. Time for a big ol' clue:

This artist's pic and the matching car song pic, are both stills, lifted from a movie.

I wasn't so far, because The Speed Lovers makes great use of stock footage for the race sequences, including much from Red Line 7000. If I'm right, the footage of Fred Lorenzen Lafayette Ford N° 28 comes from there. Red Line 7000 also features the Atlanta Raceway (as, I believe the picture that you used). So this shot may indeed come from the Howard Hawks movie.

It surely did that to mine too (and eve my car movies horizon, becaéuse I didn't know The Speed lovers.
Wasn't his one the toughest of them all?
... Maybe, but not if you think that all you had to find were song titles. In others by Otto, the answer hid amidst the lyrics.
