This kind of thing is soooo annoying. I had decided not to buy any more RC cars this year (fat chance) and that decision is already badly compromised by seing the new Corally with it's clothes on!

Just imagine a grid of these in scale liveries if you will :eek:





and because everyone loves a nudey shot ....

Rob, you know deceideing not to buy any more toys before the season starts is a stupid decicsion! You can only say things like that in November.... :)

The 1/12th scale guys (me included) will drool over this...

Damn i knew i should have never looked at this site again. Only planned to do the odd race in 2008 at the local club and not buy any new gear at all this year but that does look good.

here's a couple of shots I took (not very good!) of the car outside of the glass cabinet!

Don't panic Rob! I know the feeling. Just sit back, breath a little then go like stink to the hobby shop and get one. It's not worth losing sleep over.:D That car put a 100% beating on the other F1's in it's first race at the Snowbirds. Then all you have to worry about is the three "up's". Show up, signup, and lineup. The wife said I do not need another F1 car, my sponsor said I don't need the Corally, my competition said it wouldn't do me any good...what do they know. The order is in and raceday cometh!

If promoted properly and given some good support by existing rc drivers, this could spawn a massively successful class IMO.

The car looks stunning, and to be fair all you'd need to do to an existing 12th circuit car is fit a different chassis and axle.

Andy Sawyer brought his 10 year old Corally Pro-10 to CARS Saturday night (last run at the Worlds) to give it a run around the track. I'd never seen one in the flesh before as I gave up for the entire period of their rise and fall. All I can say is wow! They look absolutely stunning :D:D:D.

Definitely for outdoors though. They're so wide you'd never be able to overtake one on a typical carpet track!

The F1 version looks quite a bit narrower though. If close to a TC in size it would be perfect.
