Generally Parachutes are used by the Race cars at the end of race to decrease the speed of car which in turn ,helps in stopping the vehicle.
Reason:
When Parachutes are used at the back of car, they open up by filling  air  in it.which results in  a force at  back side  which is opposite to the direction of Force by which car is moving in forward direction.Thus creating a resistance force for the movement of car .
To overcome this resistance force, speed of car is decreased .
