does anyone know if there is a pound measurement to get the track turning? I guess it would be taken by removing the drive belt and then pulling the track with a decent scale attached but what i need is a reference to judge by. i think this would be a quick system check. Get a base and if the wieght goes up, ya got a problem.

I dont know a pound amount it takes to get it going, but I have been told that if you pull your belt off, then raise you sled down, you should be able to reach down, get a hand full of track and spin in nearly all the way around,,,,,,,,,,, very little resistance in a track like that,,,,,,, just dont get it too loose or you start ratcheting
