I had to pull the chute on every pass, couple of funny incedents on that too over the 5 yrs. i ran it. When i lived in Anderson SC. in 1968/1969 i built a front suspension for an altered, but i made it quarter elipitcal springs and that thing transfered weight and ran straight as an arrow. i borrowed the idea from Stone,Woods, and Cook, that's the rear suspension they had on their blown willy's.
