Does anybody know the distances on the buoys at ming.I am trying to determine where my pop-off was going off at.It pops between the first and second set of red buoys.How many buoys down is half track?Is the yellow bouy half track?How far apart are the buoys?Thanks.

I cranked the regulator to 125 psi on the pop-off.It had a decent crack in the brain that was letting air blow out of it on the pop-off side.I believe that was causing it.

i saw the thing pop a couple times, once from my pit and once from the rope. from the rope, it looked to be at or slightly past halftrack. from the pit, it looked to be near halftrack also. you can tell halftrack in the videos from the halftrack stands.

The prob before was you heat the motor by the time you get to the rope it has cooled you start your motor here comes the fresh cold water
