With over 25 years in the business, Stroud Safety has established itself as the premier name in parachute technology. Stroud chutes are well-known for always opening softly, straight, and predictably, and one person alone can pack them quickly and easily. Stroud's JEGS chutes are yellow with black JEGS logos.
Selecting the proper chute size for a race car is critical to how the chute performs. To choose the correct size, use this formula:Formula|
Weight of car (lbs) | x (multiplied by) | 1/4 mile mph |
(divided by) 1000 |
| = Chute Class (recommended chute size) |
|
Example| 2200 lbs | x | 140 mph | = 308,000 |
1000 |
| = 308 Chute Class (Super Gas chutes: 330 or less) |
