Hey everyone...I'm going autocrossing this Sunday at Coors Field in Denver. Gonna see what this bad boy can really do. If anyone is gonna be there let me know. I'll be #40-GSR. Anyone have any tips for autox with the maximas??? Laters...

37 psi front tires....about 42 psi in the rear. I live here in Denver too, I'll see if I can make it. Good luck, try not to get too much wheel spin, it will kill your time. Powerful front drivers like the max love to smoke the tires around the whole track in autocross. I used to autocross my SHO and had to do the whole course at half throttle or the tires would be up in smoke all the time. You are in G Stock? Have fun with those GTPs and SHOs. Let us know how it goes.

Hey thanks for the tips...I wish I had gotten them before the race!!! That would have really helped cause I did notice my wheels spinning A LOT. It was pretty fun though anyways. The integras were pretty tough to keep up with in the GS class!! Well I guess I'll just have to keep practicing

get a rear sway bar. The car will corner MUCH better. It'll help pivot the maxima around those turn around cones. Did you notice the large amount of understeer?! Hope you had fun...

I agree, I put a rear sway bar on my max last month, and it has made a huge difference. It feels like a totally different car.

Damn right he noticed understeer! Rear bar is a must for auto x. Maxima is a fun car, but not fun enough to race auto x. I will stick to my 510 in the cones. The integras are pretty quick in auto x but I have to put them in there place everytime with the Five & Dime!
