The skins on the rear of your car do look rather large. How big are they?

I consider myself a Chevrolet person, but the nose on your car and the nose of the Pro 5.0 Mustangs are the best in my opinion.

Very cool pictures. Do you normally use the chute at 153mph? Short shut down? Looks great.

I think you are supposed to at anything over 145mph. It's so much easier on everything.

To the best of what I have seen and been told, you need the chute at 145, but like Mike said, it is up to you when and/or if you use it. Mine's a PIA to pack so I don't like using it. Oh I have tried it a couple times, but again what a PIA to pack. Looks pretty damn cool
