Factory Five GTM first Gen. I personally like the 2nd Gen much better. And it has to have the wing! If I had spare time, and the money, I would build one no questions asked! Looks like a futuristic Ford GT!

It can be as advertised... the fastest car you will ever build. With any Corvette engine (and electrical system that goes with it) at your disposal, the car will be quite fast.
There are two forums you can visit that have GTM specific sub-forums:
FFCars.com : Factory Five Racing Discussion Forum and Factory Five Forums - The Front Page
The former is the older of the two with a lot more info. But the later is gaining because FFR sponsors that site.
In either case, you want to contact people like Dave Borden who has built a MkI roadster, a first gen GTM and is now on his MkIV Roadster (he sold the GTM to build this latest car.)
You may want to pick up the latest ressurrected "KIT CAR MAGAZINE"... it's an ALL FFR mag which does include an article on the GTM build. It just hit the stands last week.
BTW: FFR is also making something a bit different that utilizes the Subaru Boxster engine in a car the size of an Elise. Might want to go to www.factoryfivefacing.com for more info on this little rocket.Last edited by 289FIA_Cobra; 09-15-2011 at 02:09 PM.
