Default Chute's?

It looks like I have to put a chute on this car. What seems to work best
on a 2500 pound SFWD car? I hear there's a new one from Stroud but I can't seem to find a source for them.

Thanks Steve

Call stroud directly and tell them it's for a fwd application. They'll give you one of the bigger chutes with a longer tag line on it and more cutouts in the canopy. The longer line helps keep it from lifting the back end up.

I hear they can be a pain to pack back up...

Steve get a Stroud. It has a bag that you put the canopy in. Then you just coil up the lines, and pack it. The material the Stroud bags are made of are alot more durable then the Simpson.
