My son is moving out of rookie where he has been racing a short course truck. Looking to buy a B5M for him to race in sportsman stock. The latest, greatest lightest buggy won't make much difference until he increases his skills. I am looking for durability.

I am looking at a new B5M Lite or several of the used B5Ms on the sale forms. What upgrades are NEEDED for someone coming out of rookie to become competitive and have durability. A new B5M lite is $280 v some of the used rollers with lots of upgrades for $350+. I just don't know what upgrades are necessary for an intermediate racer. Mainly racing indoor clay with high bite.
