stroud is a better chute IMO. i can pack it up myself in less than 5 minutes. + there arent 30 strings like a simpson chute. there are about 5 or 6 and its very easy to get it all untangled/repacked !

I run a Simpson right now, but I believe the Stroud is better suited for our cars. My Stroud failed twice so I put the simpson on, but now that we have the net and wing going on, I think I'll be putting the stroud back on.

what happend ? the chute didnt come out of the bag? you have to open them up and repack them if they been sittin for awhile..
or you can get air launch ! thing probably shoots out 10 ft or more

</TD></TR></TABLE> We had some major turbulance issues behind the car. The chute was being pushed foward and down and tangling with the wheelie bars. The simpson chute has a much stiffer spring. We got nets over the bars now and are putting a wing on, so I think I'll put the stroud back on because it hits a lot softer and catches less air.

yeah, here it is:
step one -- go 155 mph and pull your chute
step two -- put the chute in the back of your car and pimp your ride back to the pits, don't forget to holla at the hunnies on the way back
step three -- find john ferguson
step four -- ask john ferguson to pack your chute
step five -- go make another 150+ mph pass
pretty easy
