Not to diminish the fact that these are some pretty awesome vehicles,
what I love is the fact that they come up with all these nifty remote
controlled vehicles, but in the end, you will always need us, the
infantry. Nothing will ever replace boots on the ground, which is good
for me because th
No..they added armor and weapons, and the performance is the same actually :-)
They are using it as an unmanned attack vehicle and calling that
variant the Ripsaw MS1!

I think it is intended to compete in an AUTONOMOUS vehicle competition.
This is a non-autonomous version, to show the limits of the basic
vehicle by using a human driver.
(At least, that is what I got from the text at the end of the video)

I was thinking the same. While watching the video I was thinking target. Adding
armour and weapons the performance sinks to almost nothing.
How could that be used as a military vehicle? A guy with a pistol could take
out the driver. Looks like a really fun offroad hobbyist vehicle, though.

Very cool but based on the engine alone.. it's too expensive to make it
into production..
The GMC Type blowers (4-71, 6-71) create gobs of horsepower, but the engine
have to be specifically tuned and built to handle it... great for drag
racing, bad for reliability
