The chute was packed right but we made a lot of aero changes and the chute isn't getting enough air. Most prostock cars run an airduct or c02 assisted chutes.
So far our first pass of 238 is one of the fastest. Everything seems slower this year

Well we are done after the lambo accident.
Shop friend Rich Hole lost control of his tt gallardo at about 230 when his chute caught a cross wind and hit a berm and caught about 20 feet of air and rolled 10 times or more. Luckily he walked away from it. The footage is INSANE

and you can see the whole thing. I'll upload it when I get home. I'm in the truck now heading back

good thing he walked away. Is that the same guy from the lambo vid that spun the first time he tried to launch ?

Yea. We were lining up our GTR right after him and I was right on the Tarmac behind him.
The guys actually a really good driver. He raced prostock. I wa watching the crash footage and the chute got caught by a sudden crosswind causing his accident. When y'all see the foothe y'all are going to be amazed he walked out. When I first saw it happen I expected the worst

baby steps, kid, baby steps.
Glad noone got seriously injured.
Bad part is... here come ALOT of rules....
With crosswinds that bad they should have called it until they died down. Irresponsible safety issue IMO by the event promoter.
Easy enough to say after the fact but life threatening events are no joke.
Glad to hear he walked away.
I agree, but with the open road events you have to graduate up to the unlimited class. Also the open road events have very , very strict rules but still there are crashes and people die.

I was out there from 11:45 until it began to get dark Saturday and saw some nice passes. Everyone was real friendly as well

Where's the vid of the Lambo catching air? I've read about it on a ton of forums but no one has posted it
