Five customers will also be there for you, as the one thing that really sets us
above the crowd of other companies is the size, competence and enthusiasm
of our customer community.
When the baby arrives and when your car is done, there will still be more
work. With babies, it’s up all night, diapers, and strange maternity
contraptions that men don’t speak of in the light of day… With the car it will
be other challenges. Registration and licensing can be frustrating and laws
vary from state to state. A wrench dropped from 25 feet away will
inexplicably shoot sideways into any freshly painted surface and my favorite
was my own engineers who felt the need to test out how long an 8.8” rear diff
can run on a track without gear oil (answer, about three laps before deciding
to stop moving).
There will be highs and there will be lows, but in the end, there are few
parents who don’t treasure their children more than life itself, and there are
few Factory Five owners whose lives remain unchanged by the experience
and the artwork they have crafted.
It’s one of the greatest experiences in the world to raise children. It’s also
one of the most rewarding things I know to build your own car. Even today
at car shows, open houses, and events wherever Factory Five cars are found, I
smile to hear the inevitable first words every guy says to me… “Let me show
you what I’ve done”.
The cars that we build are more than cars. They are a reflection of us. The
badge of honor that comes with having built your own car is a special one
indeed. You will join a community of others who have earned their own…
and THAT is the story of Factory Five Racing and that is what awaits you in
this process.

Safety Notice
While there are many things to love and be proud of in our country today there are a few things that we wish
were different. With regret and a small amount of resentment we include the following warning and statement
of non-liability at the advice of men with soft hands and necks the size of pencils.
Motorsports involves the operation of machines and materials near the limits of performance. Racing involves
an inherent amount of risk. Any decision to proceed in the project of building one’s own racecar must be made
with the acceptance of personal responsibility. If, while building, driving or racing this Factory Five Racing kit,
should you become injured or die, it will be the result of your own conscious decision and we at Factory Five
Racing, Inc., disclaim any responsibility of any kind.
The procedures and recommendations contained in this book are to be used as a guide with the ultimate
determination of safe construction and race-worthiness to be made by you. If you feel uneasy about whether
