I have to agree with Harry on this one and will say it is a bad idea. The carrier is too light to inflict much damage, has very poor traction with it's conventional differential, and has no overhead protection in the event of a rollover.



I did a car crush event at the local community club some years back. We sold tickets in advance and drew 3 names of who got to drive the carrier. But we used my FV432, which was quite suitable. It even spit out car parts afterwards, like a bumper that had caught up in the track. One of the names drawn was for a 16 year old boy, who used no caution in attacking the car and literally flew over it. Thankfully I had the foresight to make him (and I ) wear helmets for the event.
