A couple of questions for you that I asked my self when I was deciding the same thing. (Just bought one friday)

Do you have an ESC, can you afford to buy a body & motor separate? IF you answered yes then I would go with the PRO.... The cost of the bearings and the oil filled shocks (the standard kit comes with plasctic bushings and friction dampers) will balance out the cost of the body and motor. Plus you get all the pretty aluminium bits.
