Maxus 2009 Official Thread
That's not what I said, if you have a Maxima you have an open invitation to everything based on the rules and information provided on the MAXUS09 web site. But entering non Nissan Maxima cars in the show, drag, auto-cross (if held), audio comp is not what MAXUS is about. Also MAXUS09 is not only being publicized on this Org, but NYCMaximas, 6thgenMaximas, and a lot of other forums. Many former Maxima owners who are also still members of this Org have asked the same question. Once they say yes to you or your friends then others will demand the same. The good news is that after 2pm, the track is open to everyone at MIR so yes your friends or you have an opportunity to run the track. Again this is my opinion and I don't make any of the decisions so I'll wait for Aaron to answer your question directly. 
The event at Maryland International Raceway will be going on all day with the Drag Showdown happening in the morning until the early afternoon. We have other events happening as well that will be going on all day though, such as the Car Show and Dyno Shootout.
We are trying to add other events, but until we have details set in stone, please do not post about them.
When we have more information set in stone, it will be posted on www.maxus09.com. Once they are on the website, then you may post about them.

The track is not open to everyone after 2pm. Not sure where you got that information from.

Thanks for the clarification, only solidifies my original point, again thats why I stated refer to the Maxus09 web site for info...
You mean for the Car Show? 500 may be a tad much. But, we can have a small stack of 50-100 empty mods sheets for those that became unprepared for the car show. Also, I do not see anything to do with a "Mods List" anywhere in the judging criteria. But, anything to win the judges favor couldn't hurt. Most people will have a laminated or framed Mods List though.

I was under the impression that our track agreement with MIR was until 2pm. Then we would need to wrap things up and make way for their ET Brackets.

Most likely 65mph where you'll be driving through.
So is there any interest in meeting up earlier in the week for a road course event? If everything works out with my car I'm heading down to NJMP on Sunday and running a two day event with SCDA Monday and Tuesday.
Also what else is there to do in the area? Because I will have to kill two days before Maxus.

We are working on coming up with a few cool night attractions or famous restaurants in Washington DC to post on the official website. But if anybody from the DC area has any suggestions, please feel free to post.

I know there are quite of a few Maxima.org members coming from the Boston area. I would post a thread in the Northeast section. Or if you find a thread that's already been started, just post there.
I know Indiana is 70mph but i think that's about it with awesome speed limits... when you drive thru some parts of il it goes down to 55mph and supposedly if you happen to drive by downtown chicago on the highway, last time i checked, it's posted 45 mph.... not too many people follow that tho...
I've never been caught in any of those states, not that anyone should be speeding anyway.

im down to almost whatever. Just let me know.
kkozy1982, Is it possible to get things rolling now? We are only a few months away from MAXUS 09.
I know the Southeast thread is turning into a chat room, but the original poster should edit his first post to inform people of the definite meeting points.
