I had this debate full force on another site, and don't want to go back into here, but I don't care if that extra 320' can net you 600 feet of stopping distance. When you're going 280+ in a rail and your chutes don't deploy, you're fucked. You can't stop in sand traps, you're not going to ease into a concrete wall.
They need to redesign these chutes (which FREQUENTLY don't deploy, especially when engulfed in flames), they need to lengthen the shutdown on the shorter tracks, and for the interim, they should limit the nitro percentages on the short tracks to keep speeds and ET's down.
