yes i am a driver, i rev match down shift all the time, i like turns.... i loved my ninja 250 more than i did my zx7r because the 7r was a pig in the turns. i've been to the track (motopark w/ honda cr 125, friends STI and '73 porsche at Cayuga) but for driving i'd rather something light with less power if its fwd (civic) or front engine rwd would be my choice (240, miata, e30, g )
just saying, imo a maxima isn't something id enjoy at an autocross even if you have a good setup

as long as it is a DJ and not a damn mustang dyno. Nobody ever puts in the right values on the mustang so the results are always off. Then again if the values are the same the differences will still be valid so for our purposes I suppose it matters not

Except for us New Englanders. Who properly drop our r's & speak like Sean Connery & Patrick Stewart. My Ex wife used to make fun of My NE twang all the time, because she was from NJ & pronounced her R's. Until it was noted how she had difficulty understanding British television dialog & I didn't.

That is wrong in so many ways. FWD cars are not popular on the race track simply because they are the hardest to drive well and set-up well. Just because they are hard doesnt mean that the max cant be set-up well for the track. They can. Our aftermarket doesnt have custom control arms and you cant easily modify the pickup points to lower the roll center. However, with proper corner balancing and making the rear stiff and front soft you can make it handle quite well and make it a balanced car that doesnt understeer like a bia
Well I never had stock suspension, my first setup was Dropzone springs + Blown stock struts and poly ure front end and I competed in Gymkhana with that setup... A sport which requires a LOT of oversteer to compete in, and our parking brakes won't last long if I'm using it on every turn, I only used it to do spin cones or 180s, but the rest of the course I didn't touch it.
^WHEEL CHALKIN LIKE UH BAWSSSS
^ I did a 180 right hander before this corner, the rest is self explanitory....
And there is one decent video on Youtube of me doing the Gymkhana final.
[edit]
Dammit... I want mustang wheels again, they looked dirty... in a good way....
Yeah Bose or Panasonic. Only the Nissan side of things use Infinity or other stuff.... Rockford Fos... and sumfin else
