I love my Steeda Triax and would never have another brand. I've driven a Pro 5.0 shifter and it's good for those that like really short throws but the Steeda offers more confidence for powershifting with it's tight 3rd gear spring. I've heard some good stuff about the MGW (I think that's what it is) shifter too, though I've never shifted it.

Pro 5.0 base with a Steeda Triax handle is awesome. The Triax by itself is awesome too. I have also used a Pro 5.0 base with a Hurst handle in the past and it worked really well too.

I could have used one last week. I missed third and was out in the 2nd round. 4 tenths of my dial in.
