I’m building my first drag car for a customer to do TX2K in 2024. First go around with a parachute so your video was extremely helpful, thank you. Love seeing videos that get down to business without the fluff.

I watched a few videos on packing a chute and this was by far the best and most instructive. Thanks!

Thanks. After doing it so many times it becomes real easy. 😄 what are racing or building ? Hope to have you as a subscriber !! Thanks for watching

Thank you !! I've watched a few of these, and I think yours is the best. Sad to say, I have watched this being done and really didn't pay attention. Since about 1970. I now have my own car that actually needs one. Also , I like the confidence of your son. Good job!

The Simpson instruction say your pack flaps need to be threaded bottom,top, left, right. Makes it a little easier doing it by yourself. ✌️

I’ve always found going from the top to the bottom first, then going from left to right heaps easier while working on your own, but everyone has their own methods

Thanks so much for the video! Very good explanation, I was struggling cause the cord that came with it was too short, just like you said. Fun fact: I am watching this and packing it also on Christmas. So merry Christmas from Germany 🇩🇪

Very informative, way more info than I was needing and I appreciate that. This is the first of your videos that I’ve seen because I was searching dragster parachute operation because I’m planning on mounting one one a Minibike. Just for fun but I want it to work. Sweet ride btw I also own a ‘64 Comet.

If i have a shout but don’t really use it often, should I open up every couple months or Before I’m ready to use it so it doesn’t get stuck or fails

@Jvcomet

If you don’t use it often I would open and fluff it out. Check for rips and repack for the race . Thanks

My goal for my build was 150mph trap to earn the chute.. but now after seeing several drivers wrestling with there chute I now only wanna go 149.5 mph 😅

So the spring doesn’t push the chute out, it jumps out first and pulls the chute out?

Yeah I'm new to parachutes

This might be a dumb question but are these street legal, like I live in Nevada but could I ride around with one of these

@Jvcomet

3 жыл бұрын

No not at all they’re track built . You can build street legal cars that can be daily driven . But they would be totally built with that In mind. #1 thing would be cooling and then there’s fuel capacity . And all the legal things for being on a public road . And or pass your given states safety and emission laws. Hope that answers your questions. Thanks for watching. 👍👍
