yes I did. Actually I was just past the finish line. Had a bad cross wind. One of the other racers in a fast car came and told me it jerked his car sideways when he pulled the chute. I had planned on not pulling my chute, when I got the finish line I hit the brakes to hard along with that track had a bump in that lane. When I hit the bump the car started bouncing, just instinct to pull the chute. With the cross wind and bouncing the car yanked around backwards. I was lucky and never really crossed into the other lane. One reason I won't ever go back to a hardtail dragster.
