There were/are two systems: on car and ~~ finish line track triggered.
The first two races of the season had some pretty good blower explosions/burst panel venting and it did not look like the chutes were deployed in every case. Was that just my imagination?
On the track system, there were a few cases in previous years where the fuel cars coasted by the trigger mechanism (not under power) and the chutes deployed. Thought I saw the same sort of situation this year, but no chutes.
