Alternatives to Pull Start

[ChiefGeek]

I started with a roto start on my savage and loved it from day one. Now I expand the collection and get a used Losi xxx-nt and love driving this thing but it is a PITA to start with that stupid pull start. I read up on it, I follow the directions of being easy and not yanking the snot out of it. It still is a royal pain to start and I want something easier. What are some choices? I saw the tiger drive, one of the cars I bought that I plan to selll has one on it, looks pretty cool, so that wouldn't be bad. Can a traxxas EZ Start be easily retrofitted and is the weight worth it on such a light small car (compared to the savage)? That ROSS is cool, but you have to have the remote with the ignition button on it I imagine.

ezstart might fit ..not sure about it .. , if the ross starter fits , you can adapt it to work with a wand like traxxas .....

i didnt have much faith in pull starts ...but as i learned with my wasp, with a good tune , they start right away ...(2 to 4 pulls in my case )

I'll probably do a tiger drive if I can locate the plate that fits the losi. I just like to hear the opinions of others before I start throwing money on the counter.
