I've raced a friends GSR powered hatch and sometimes he pulled on me and sometimes I pulled on him. It's all driver. Can you beat a B18C1 w/ a B16???................Of course. Which is a better base???........The B18C1.

I agree, the B18C1 is a better base. Thats not saying the B16A is a bad base to work with, but for $500 more the B18C1 is definatly worth it.
