Now I feel challenged. I'll ask JHH2392, who posts here occasionally, to verify that my 6-volt 34 Eight usually starts within a half-revolution. Often it starts so fast you can't even hear the starter motor crank.

And John car, also a 6-volt, usually starts with less than 3 seconds of cranking. And a half-dozen more around here, all 6-volt, start similarly.

Really, we're having a bit of fun here but if you 6-volt car cranked 30-60 seconds, there was something very wrong with it.

Come on JHH, speak to us.

PS: Eric, come-on now, fess-up, if your 30-60 seconds was the rule, the horse & buggy and steam cars would have lasted another 4 decades.
