I have a Pro 5.0, and I have no complaints, though I've never used any others except for a Hurst in a '66 coupe, so it's not really comparable.

MGW or Pro 5.0 get my votes.

Now I know we have different trannys and all....

I have the Pro 5.0 and I love it. Yes its "hard" to get into 5th and reverse, but its made for track racing. Who the hell goes into 5th at the track...

I was going to get the tri-ax, my dad has one. Its easy to shift into all gears but I liked the throws of the pro 5.0.

Either way you will be happy, MGW or Pro 5.0
