Go ahead if you like, but remember that it really doesn't take much to break a wrist or ankle, and that will keep you out of study for two weeks and off the pitch for ten. Scaremongering maybe, but I wouldn't feel comfortable if I didn't sound a warning.
I'm going to sound stuff that you already know here, but these springs are compressed with lethal force. Yes it *should* shoot into ground but factoring in your equal and opposites it's hard to say what the car is going to do given it has a somewhat smaller mass than the ground. This means that you don't want to be under the car and you don't want to be over the car.
