Hope they've got air bags, perhaps a new rally class in the wrc?

I remember a mate of mine describing how some idiot had gone airborne with an M60 one day, snapping 3 torsion bars upon landing.
I cannot possibly repeat the coulourful language that accompanied his description of just how difficult it was to remove and replace the torsion bars while the tank was sitting immobile in the middle of a muddy field... ;D
