650 I think. I have the Odessey on order. 680 CCA. I called odessey and they told me they have them in big Ford trucks and it would be more than enough for the Maxima.

Odessey PC680MJT............~$100
Hold down tray..................~$45


Also for weight reduction drink lots of coffee or some Ex-lax before any big track day. Get your system cleaned out! That'll save you like ~5lbs.

ROFL !

just make sure you dont time it wrong ! You could end up in a dragstrip bathroom reducing more weight instead of racing ! LOL ! use the billy corgan "rapid weight loss plan" with extreme caution.
