Deploying your parachute for the first time can be intimidating, and even more intimidating is repacking it. If you have a fast car, you need to consider incorporating deploying your parachute into your routine. It is not only good precaution but can straighten a car out that is drifting or getting loose as well as be a great safety measure in the event your brakes aren't working properly from hot lapping or parts failure.

This video has a step by step of how to pack a spring pilot style parachute sold by Stroud with the inner deployment bag. Doug also goes over some things to check and maintenance items. If you have not packed a chute before check this out. It will save you a lot of headaches and hopefully simplify the process for you.
