They seem to have a pretty fancy system...perhaps overkill. Does not seem to be too much autocrossing going on though.
'Cuz we're all pimps and hoes over on Altimas.net!
It is a nice system -- Mike (BigBird) does a good job with it. He's got good sponsors like Stillen and Tire Rack, and there's a lot of traffic, so he gets the money to keep up.
And yes, you may need to be careful venturing into Off Topic while at work.
We do try to label threads with nudity as NWS - Not Work Safe.
But no, not too much autox'ing in the Altima community. Myself and 2 or 3 others is all I've seen. The car was only semi-competitive in stock form when it was in ES. Might be a little more competitive in HS now. But the Altima community is a younger sort, most of them getting their cars (used) in high school or just beyond, so they're more into show than go. Plus most of them don't even know about autoxing -- I didn't even learn about it until I was 27, and that was purely by chance. Many of them go to the strip, but it's not easy to make the Alty really fast. We do have a couple of 1st-gen Altimas doing mid-14 1/4's though, and a few with turbos on them.
BTW, I'm referring to the 1st- and 2nd-gen Altimas. Obviously the 2002's like yours are a different story, and their owners are generally a different demographic from the rest of the site.
