When we invited Factory Five Racing to participate in the KIT CAR Performance Day, we hoped they'd test their Candy Apple Red, LS7-powered GTM Supercar we first featured in the November '06 KC. With a curb weight of just 2550 lbs (200 lbs heavier than the GTM) and a 40/60 weight ratio, the GTM-R can reportedly hit 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds (0.2 seconds slower than the GTM). He did however disclose many issues that he had with the build, many of them mentioned in this thread and along with others, well documented over on the FFR forum. Quality control is poor and several people have had to remove pick up poits on the chassis and reweld them.
1/4 mile in 11.0 seconds at 132 mph! Man, am I glad that I made the right decision. The GTM is designed to accept GM LS series engines. Is the SL-C as difficult to put together? The PDG guys at FFR.com have put a lot of work into their car and comparing it with the standard GTM.....well no comparison. The frame is made of mig-welded, high strength mild carbon steel tubing and plate steel. Finish …
Wouldn't it be great to see many more of these FFR GTMs on the streets of America? I know RCR sells rolling chasis and FFR uses a a C5 as a donor car but in terms of performane and bang for your buck which one is better and why? with only 127 miles.
Then, a driving prototype, which was scrutinized by …
We think so.

The car was beautiful and the builder did a fantastic job with many custom details. Don't know about you, but I find that fiberglass work is really messy and not tremendously rewarding.
The car is drop-dead gorgeous and it runs with the very fastest supercars on the planet. In that time, more details of the SL-C were coming out and I liked what I saw better, especially after I saw one in person before I decided to buy. We’ve competed in the 25 Hours of Thunderhill for more than five years. First shakedown session of car.
They both look sick, that's a given, haha :happy:I agree with Doc - GTM, SLC, Ultima, final build costs will be within 5% of eachother more-than-likely in a quality build.
My SL-C was chosen after looking at a few, GTM builds in progress, and driving their demo car at Road Atlanta a couple years ago.
The GTM is faster than notable supercars like a Dodge Viper ACR, a Porsche GT, a Saleen Twin Turbo S7, and a Ford GT! JavaScript is disabled. With a curb weight of just 2550 lbs (200 lbs heavier than the GTM) and a 40/60 weight ratio, the GTM-R can reportedly hit 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds (0.2 seconds slower than the GTM). There are a lot of things on the car that they could have done differently that would result in a better car.
As mentioned, the SL-C costs for a decent completed car would be similar to either the GTM or the Ultima, with the GTM a bit cheaper and twice the work! The GTM is a unique FFR design that took five years to come into existence. Considerable computer CAD/CAM work led to a full-scale buck. The Ricardo box is the ZF of the early 21st Century. Jack it up and the doors don't want to open. Build it as well as this one is constructed, and we might honor your efforts here someday.

The supply is finite, and eventually will dry up. If you want to build a better supercar, a Factory Five GTM is a good platform to start with. Then, a driving prototype, which was scrutinized by various focus groups, and a final new design, which incorporated a different rear body treatment from the focus group's feedback, finally yielded the first and second production prototypes ("Factory Five's GTM," November '06 KC).Almost a year has passed since we first featured the LS1- and LS7-powered GTMs. FFR experimented with a G96 transaxle from a GT3 Porsche, mostly because it will take the extra horsepower from the 7-liter 427 engine in FFR's prototype red GTM (the black prototype uses a …
For those who prefer a cleaner look, the GTM-R can be ordered without the rear wing, but Revenge recommends that if you delete it, then it wouldn't be the smartest idea to take it to the track.Revenge Designs says it will build 100 GTM-Rs this year unless there is demand for more.
