Well faaantastic. Its packed correctly, that wasnt that big of a deal… it was pushing the pilot chute in while trying to feed the little stringy through it all! I havent made any plans to go out yet… still trying to triple morgage the shop to pay for fuel. Once its off turbo-blue and on c16, then i’ll be ready to start dialing it in and then figureing out the nitrous. ---

that release cable looks like it could be trimmed down to ensure chute ejection, but since i’m nowhere near fast enough to know anything about them ‘slow me down air catchers’ ---

Best i have logged was 9.54 i believe… dont recall the mph. I have some paperwork were it was in contention for the fastest non-tubbed corvette, but im sure there are way faster setups out there by now.
