You're going to have issues if any of your wheels are not in contact with the carpet. This year's field may appear to be flat, but invariably even the flattest fields will have dips or ridges in them. Your best bet is to allow flex in your chassis or engineer a suspension.

Regardless of what you do, good luck.
