Default RE: Starter box?

So, [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXBN23&P=ML]this[/link] one does work for the Rustler for sure? Also, ICrashThings, I have a Fantom .12 engine, which is an awesome, fast, and expensive racing engine that pops wheelies all over the place and has a top speed around 50 mph (so it's tuned good), but it takes like 6 pulls just to prime it, then a couple more to get more gas in the engine when it doesn't start (or taking the glow plug out, turning the car upside down, and pulling the pullstart a few times to get all the gas out when it floods, then start all over again) , then about 3 more to start; it's a pain in the butt[:@]! I need a starter box because I intend on racing, and, just while practicing, I'd get flipped upside down and nobody could get to it in time and it would die (even though I was blipping the throttle). Then, I'd have to carry it over to my table, take the body off, prime it again, then try to start it with the pull start. I finally gave up and someone there let me use their starter box and I had no problems after that, except for a popped shock cap. A starter nox is a lot more convenient than a pull start. Also, go to a track and look around. How many people do you actually see with pull starts that aren't newbies? Then look at how many have starter boxes. Yeah, exactly, almost EVERYONE has starter boxes and say that pull starts suck and only cause problems and frustration.

Hey, pocketrocketsAA, with [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXBN23&P=ML]this[/link] starter box and [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/WTI0001P?&I=LXL370&P=V]this[/link] battery, what charger should I get?
