Got her all done! We'll be testing her tonight!! Looks like it'll be good air, now if the track will just hold the car!!

The chute isn't packed because we need to lay it all out and we didn't want to get it all nasty on the shop floor. We'll do that this afternoon before we load her up!

Just pull one bolt and swap the plates and the chute is gone!!!

I wouldn't have put a chute on it at all if I thought I could get away with it! However, the track shut me down last time I went over 150 mph and since I ain't quite done turning her up.........

It's a cable release mounted in the console. I'll get a picture for you today!

Throw the chute forward then throw the shifter forward into neutral. Keeping it simple!
