Push starts are cheaper, and easier than gate starts, but i think that also depends on the type of race thats beign held. i.e a GRASS race its per se a cheap easy-to-make race and gates or ramps will be "against" te idea of the GRASS idelogy. ramp starts are difficult IMHO because not everyone knows...
