Is that pop-off valve valve a full manual or manual/automatic deal? I'm wondering if you'd have time to open it manually if god forbid something went wrong at half track?
definately a nice piece.

definately a nice piece. The pop-off is a manual/automatic deal. The cable is connected to a foot pedal for manual release, and the spring tension is set for automatic release.
In addition to the pop-off, I also run a Jetaway.
