would a 12 volt drill work for the vx. 18, or dosn't it spin fast enough?

RE: rotostart
yeah it has been about 3 weeks for now, and I am going through some serious withdrawls. Got a little bit of a cure today. Me and dad ran his Hurricane and Savage for a little bit. Parts haven't come yet though. Guess I will have to wait another week to run.

RE: rotostart
Don't forget about coming over here on Friday and running my cane while I was gone!! He was having trouble with the throttle servo and all he needed to do was replace the batteries. Cut his running time short. Lost a dogbone out of the savage Saturday. Only 2 weekends left before running off to KC for the ARCA, Craftsman truck and IRL race. No Sean is not getting any tickets this year!! I'm going to all the races!!

RE: rotostart
I`m a pull start guy kinda guy, never had a problem yet. Long as your engine is tuned well and broke in properly a pull start will start on the first to second pull if primed properly.
