haha nice
if i cant find one i might just mod a normal one with 2 extra contacts. then make a small circuit board and program it to engage the starter and ac position, take the rpm signal and after 500rpm(when crank fueling ends) release it. but not re-engage until ac has been turned off, ether by taking the wheel off or hitting a hidden but conveniently placed reset switch.
sounds like it should work.

Any quick release can be spun like that I thought, I have the Bell quick release and if I remember (it's been a while sadly) you can snap it on in any position, but it rotates until it is centered then locks into position. It's getting it to crank until started that would be the trick, especially on a rotary. lol
