I think I am going to be sick. . .I went looking for turboshaft driven cars and found a forum in which they kept calling it a turbo-prop and referring to hooking it to the axle.
Then they got to talking about how it couldn't be used in small land based vehicles.
1.) if it turns a shaft thats not connected to a traditional horizontal propeller its a turboshaft even if its connected to a vertical lift specific "rotary blade" or tires/treads. Helicopters, tanks and motorcycles use turbo shaft engines.
2.) they already exist.
Sorry I had to vent somewhere. . .
