Check Out This Assault Vehicle
This company has built an assault vehicle using a 6.6 Duramax engine.

Check out the videos. It is the Ripsaw MS1 This sucker will travel over 100 MPh. They asked us if we build a clutch to hold. There will be two clutch packs that will act as drive/steering clutches. So, we built a billet aluminum flywheel with a bronze inlay for a triple disc and used a 3600 lb plate load. Sent them the proto type and they ran a torque test on the clutch. It bent their torque bar at 5800 ft lbs of torque. :-laf:-laf They called and said to get the second one rolling.

Was the first one powered by a blown chevy or something? I remember seeing something similiar that was manned, but gas powered. Seems like a couple guys built it from scratch as well.
Most definately the coolest RC car I have ever seen. They said it is being weaponized.....Maybe they will come up with a 1/10 scale version with little automatic pellet guns....would be great for chasing stray cats.
