I found these pics of a prototype car when I was surfing around a few weeks ago. It apprears to be called a Fire12., and it looks to be based on a Corally, as well.
I'd love to get my hands on one of these. Anyone seen it before or know anything more about it?

10 years ago Corally had a 12th scale called the SP12V (6-cell). Honda House owner and Wayne Vince re-designed the chassis on the V car to put the cells down the middle. The car worked good (anything works good when Wayne Vince is driving it). I had one for about a year but could never do well with it.

way_fast_cells-If you look on the website you will see pre-production version...
Looks cool! Silver carbon fiber is definitely different.
Anyone have any idea how this will handle as opposed to a CRC?Speedmerchant link car?

The car you will get, however might differ in minor details from the final version that's still in development.

If anyone's interested, there's also a 10th scale pancar version of the Ascari car. I will post pictures if there's some ineterest. This one is at its final stage of development.

Feel free to e-mail us at info@darkside with any related questions or order reservations.

Darkside-Will this be sold as a complete kit or a conversion? Cost?
How about support at my local track?

Certainly, mine does not have any craftmanship whatsoever , all I had was a Dremel.
