well nitro we had the volcano s30 running 3 times today but the engine like went outta control started idling up way high so we shut it off, just to find out the roto start gear is stripped. so i think u was right when u said u preferr an pull start. they seem like they may be easiler to fix. i ordered one off of ebay for like 29 bucks which including shipping which isn;t too bad compared to what they cost u on redcats site. so guess i gotta wait on the new spur and clutch bell gear for the traxxas and the pull start for the volcano before i can get rest of the way broke in. i just hope the good weather we been having holds out. in last 5 days weather has been 50s-70s.
