RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread
Well I've just finished taking the roto-start off my MT2 and replacing it with a pull-starter. A bit more work than I expected as I had to remove the rear diff and wheels to get access to unscrew the roto-start, but I suppose it's a good thing as I familiarise myself with the car.
Hopefully having a pull-start will mean less hassle in future, as carrying that heavy roto-starter around was a real pain.
