Hey this is exactly what I was thinking. It would allow entry level players 
to buy a big rc buggy, make a Jeep shell and stick a GI Joe witha camera for 
a head and Wallah, they are in the game as a scout (mind you the Gi Joe with 
a camera for a head would look very Borg!)

I would think that speed would have less of a role, in fact hooning along 
would attract attention no end.

Urban Warfare would be very tense, exciting and a fantastic spectator sport, 
come to think of it anything where the terrain is broken up would be good.

Also it would make for dedicated crews of 2 for any turrented tank, which 
adds another level of complexity without adding a whole new tank.

Hmmm the more I think of it the more I like it.
