We stuff the seats in there and go riding around, get to a big hill and he floors it. Halfway up the hill both seats proceed to fall over backwards depositing us upside down in the back seat. We really should have bolted them in, in retrospect.
Been there.

I have a friend who was into Pro street. Me and another friend (years ago as well) go by and see how the build of the new car was coming along. There's no seats, just a roll cage steering wheel and gear box. So the three of us go for a little ride. Second gear and he sticks his freaking left foot through the floor....... Oh, did I mention no seats. My other friend and I were in the back up against the back panel sitting on the metal floor pan and dude was sitting a freaking milk crate. After second gear, he wasn't but he was still hanging on to the steering wheel and his foot was still mashing the accelerator through the freaking floor. This car did not want to track straight either, the wheel wells were open, he's off the milk crate and can't see out the windshield (probably couldn't have anyway because of all of the tire smoke by this time that has rolled into the cabin). And we are being slung around the back. I am not really sure what we did. The black marks didn't make a whole lot of sense, sort of like a dyslexic chinese guy trying to write a "w".

By the time he got it stopped we were a ball of coughing, laughing and crying from laughing so hard.
