8.60s at 156 it just doesn't stop like other cars do and it has four wheel disc on it.I might need to try different pads. I have run it down there before and it seems like at 150mph it is a lot easier to stop and that is only 6mph less.

Gottcha, all cars are different. I would definitely try something cause you should be able to stop that baby. What does it weigh? My bro stops Bob Jone's dragster from 180 without a CHUTE Probably weighs around 2000lbs with him in it.

Almost 2700 with me in it.Any where else I go I can get on and off the brakes and stop without any problems but if I don't want to pull the chute there it is pretty much on the brakes until I turn off the track.

Gino redlit saturday and lost in the second on sunday with an mov of .012. We had fun though. Bad news is that we had to get pulled out of our pit spot with a big ass tractor. Good news was the car went 5.16 and we won best appearing. It was a pretty good weekend.

The car count was about 18 TS cars. And as far as using a chute at PRP, any door car that goes faster than 8.90 is definetly going to need to use them. I can't think of one door car that goes faster than that without using a chute.

Tony doesn't use chutes. He uses guard rails.

Much more effective
