Just know that if you do get an 07 you shouldn't mess with it unless you know exactly what you are doing. The 07 is less understood and less mod friendly than past years. I'm very happy with mine.

Best gearing according to who? If your talking about drag racing then you are correct. If your talking about auto x I wouldn't say they have the best gearing.

Yeah, you're right. I should have said IMO. In my opinion when it comes to daily drivability and drag racing the 07 is geared the best. When it comes to auto x and some other types of racing it all depends on the course. Sometimes the 07 is best sometimes the old ratios are.
