Gearing is the main thing I can think of. in the 8th your trying to get the most power out of a short distance. you wouldn't want to run hthe same gear in the 1/4 if your power is finished at the 8th mark. Set your vehicle up for the tracks you run the most.
X2. Parachute is governed by mph. I "believe"...it is once you reach 140 mph in the 1/4 you are required to have a chute. That is if your following the rest of the safety rules hardly anyone ever does. I don't remember what the rule is for trap speed in the 1/8th to require a chute.
