I bought a normal M-05... so far I've realised that all the parts on the M-05 are worth having.

Bearings are essential, the kits springs are too long for the oil shocks, the kit steering rod is too short, and I've already bent a rear upright. My car will be M-05 PRO spec soon enough, and have cost me more money to do it!

Looks to me like an M-05 PRO kit with TRF or black CVA super minis is the perfect way to start Mini racing.
