But I still think there might be something wrong with the parachute setup - it shouldn't open under the normal tension of the tow. And 65 to 75 mph does seem too fast for the tow car. I drove tow cars for many years before we changed over to a winch, and I don't recall ever going as fast as that even in no wind conditions. I hope you sort out the problem.
