I'd love to see that too.

I read this thread a while back and it gave a lot of good insight:

I'd like to take my max to an SCCA event sometime, but I'm hesitant due to the hidden costs and possible consequences. It's my daily driver and I'm not too thrilled with the idea of screwing up a 2 year old vehicle.

But still, after my drop, we'll see =) Maybe after a brake system upgrade as well.

Any insight on your end, irish44j? Things to consider?

Yeah, your stock brakes will let you down.

Stock brakes are fine if you use good pads. Plenty of maximas have done and do trackdays. Obviously most of them are 3rd-5th gens though. I would do some research in the track/autocross section here!

RallyCross is a completely different thing from trackdays

Pretty cool. Nice runs! Looks like the course designers really like slaloms.

There was only one real slalom (in the grassy area). The rest of them are to keep the speeds from getting excessive. If that straight was wide-open you'd have people doing 120 heading right at trees
