Unlike other boxes that can take a couple of hours to assemble, the Ready-Start comes prebuilt and wired. All that's needed is to plug in and install the batteries (not included), attach the chassis positioning posts in the desired position, and plug in the rubber feet. The Ready-Start is ready to use in about 5 minutes. Dynamite's Ready-Start comes with the starter wheel positioned for sidewinder mount engines to fit most 1/10 and 1/8 scale cars but can easily be positioned inline for 1/8 scale buggies in a few minutes with just four screws.
Smart features:
The Ready-Start has several unique features. A 3-plug glow plug caddy and body clip holder is conveniently located on the front of the box just below the handle. No more fumbling to find these items, just before a race. The two 550 high-torque motors (tied together through a belt-reduction drive unit) have internal capacitors attached. This eliminates the radio interference that we've experienced with other starter boxes. You'd certainly never run your electric car without capacitors on the motor.
The Ready-Start also features several added slot positions for mounting the chassis positioning posts that will fit virtually every popular 1/10 and 1/8 gas car or truck. Two types of batteries can be used: a single 12-volt, 7amp lead acid battery or two 7.2-volt car packs. Wiring harnesses are provided to accept both.

Dynamite Ready-Start Universal Starter Box (Assembled)
Seems to work ok for my mbx5r with a os vspec .21 engine. I'm using a gel battery. It's not the flashiest box on the track, but it gets the job done.

Dynamite Ready-Start Universal Starter Box (Assembled)
I give this box a 3 out of 5 based on the fact that I am unable to use a 4 peg set-up on this box with my truggy. It also lacked the power to turn over my engines efficiently (rex p5x and axe rossi speed) until I rewired it so the motors are in parallel, and get twice as much power. For starting up a .15 in a stadium truck though, it would be absolutely perfect. If you plan to start a truggy or buggy with an extremely high compression engine, be prepared to rewire this box, or just get another box.

Dynamite Ready-Start Universal Starter Box (Assembled)
Having the option of using a 12v gell cell or 2 stick packs is really nice. It comes pre-wired for both. Use it to start my rc10 gt with no problems. Comes pre-assembled so it saves time also. I run two 2200mah stick packs most of the time and they will easily last all day at the track. Overall a good value.
