    dude, why are you worrying about binders? Go with that Seclleter cam and worry about slowing ole' silver down later.

    Parachutes work... but they are for track only cars. They are not needed on trailers and the show field where most of your cars spend their time.

    The lightweight option would be to cut a hole in the floor and stop Flintstones style with your feet.

    Rumor has it you are shooting for around 430 to the wheels. That should be enough to trap 110. What are your thoughts Troy?

    with the seclleter cam part # ecof-3 i think i'll think i should be trapping 130+ or so, so brakes are a big concern, i talked to wilwood at least i know what master cyl i need ... flinstone style sounds like fun
