much respect for an awesome achievement

Unless the car has got out of shape, seems very daft to want to pull a chute at those speeds. ie A bit like that Lambo driver who couldnt drive his finger up his hole who destroyed it by pulling the chute for absolutely no reason.
Is the chute mounted wrong or something ? A chute is supposed to be a safety feature, not something that can cause a car to go out of control.
