Anyone have a removable launcher parachute???

[HEMI-ITIS]

I want to be able to remove the chute with a slider and a pin.I found one picture of a removable launcher and I didn't like the way it looked , the pack looked like it was 3 feet behind the car! Also will mount the release lever on the floor.
Anyone have pictures of removable launcher,I went Stroud FWIW

Right now I'm just in awe that your STREET car needs a parachute.

Heck they use to have Max Wedge race day on Friday the week of Chrysler Carslisle. They even had free bus rides from Carslisle to SM.

That's what I'm sayin! I sent him a message,,,,lets see if I get a reply!

Do you drive that from Long Island, all the way to Carlisle? That's gotta be about 250 miles and LOADED with A@#hole drivers.

Mine is not a launcher but it is removable. My favorite part of my car even though you can hardly see it once the bag was installed.

That is a huge jump at this speed. I forget your weight . But at 3600 it would take roughly 300+ horse power extra.

4lbs to 6 lbs was 7 MPH. I have no clue how the HP curve turns right as the boost climbs.
I was at 3700 with me in,add 40 or 50 lbs for the chute.taking maybe another 10 to 15 lbs out so,,,we will see!

Thanks. See can't see much now unless looking down the trunk line from the front.

I'm going with the mustang type mount.

 

[6PKRTSE]

Looks good on the Mustang but I would think with a launcher chute & that angle it may lift the car & get loose some at times once deployed. Angle does not need to be that drastic.

 

[HEMI-ITIS]

Guess that is possible.Have seen vids & write ups and the say a minimum of 45* for mounting and the attachment for the rope needs to be between the crank & cam centerlines. I have also seen dual mounting points to change the pull point.
