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
