Actually, it looked pretty stupid. A thrown outside track during a power slide like they were doing results in a instant, very instant roll. The passengers standing would have been pitched out and probably squished like a bug.

Our hobby of vintage MV's will not be helped in the future with lethal accidents as a result of irresponsible driving. The media will have a field day. Insurance will be affected. Ownership rights may be infringed. As well as some innocent kid losing his dad. Tracked armor, or any MV is a dangerous machine that requires respect. I've owned 18 armor vehicles and I know how easy it is to get careless "just having fun." Checked your seatbelts and fire extinguisher lately? My .02

Really, Really, Really Stupid! I had a good friend when I was in the Army that was in an M114A1E1 that flipped. Almost cut him in two. Disgusting to treat that equipment like that., also.

I can't imagine what it would cost to fix things after tearing them up like that! Got any idea how much work that is?
