    We used a horn from a security system for cars. It's nice and loud!

    Re: horns

    I run the supertone hella horn. Usually the race cars run two, but I run one on my baja bug/prerunner and it works fine. You can find one for about $50 and its easy to install.

    Re: horns

    The Hella horns are loud when your standing in front of them. After 15 miles in my 1600 I can barely hear them myself let alone the cars I am running down. You should run them both. install is easy if it is going on a switch. They do have diagrams on how to splice into the stock system. Im sure it will take longer if you go that route.

    Re: horns

    I don't think horns or even sirens work against the noise of many cars. I was passed by a late running Class 1500 at the TT250 and only heard the siren as that car was even with my left rear. My co-driver didn't hear it until it was past us. We do run a V-8 with headers and Supertrapps.
    I used to be an alienated youth, then I became a disgruntled malcontent, next a crackpot, but now I hope to be a curmudgeon.
