If we’re going to be talking about ways to make the IndyCar series more interesting then let’s put everything on the table. Since folks wanting to have genteel conversations at the track wish to make the cars run quieter, how about we add some excitement by putting stylized horns on each race car.

You know, something that plays a few seconds of music or a sound effect. Just so drivers know who’s behind them complaining of blocking. Vitor has already been given the “Dixie” horn effect, Dixon could fire off an “Ice Ice Baby”, and Helio could have the theme from “Dancing with the Has Beens”.

And in honor of the highest finish ever by a Japanese driver, I think we all know what Hideki Mutoh needs to have. Click the image above to hear.
