Airopened chutes, never packed before.
 
Long story short we bought a 6 sec chevy monza to race it here in estonia but we havent had airopened chutes before. In other cars we used a chute with pilot that went in chute box, line was dropped and pilot pulled the chute...
Now we have a double chute-combo in the Monza and trying to recover info how to pack the chutes. No pilots, just a bag for canopy+lines and the chutebox that pushes it out. So, how do I pack the chutes in order to be opened in the right way?

I don't know about you, but I always drive hard thru the chute deployment.
