I doubt there is very little chance of that but what I was thinking is that F5 is a sponsor - probly supplying the kit and other support and in turn gains from development and fine tuning of the race car - eg, suspension, brakes, aerodynamics, etc.
The race car development should be key to further performance gains getting the vehicle closer and closer to world class supercar performance in every aspect. This of course is JMHO but I think Revenge might be the real recepient of real improvements over an already excellent vehicle.
What seems to be up in the air is exclusivity of the parts that Revenge will be using. Will they be exclusive to Revenge or can anyone upgrade their existing GTM kit to mirror our vehicle. There has to be a very real distinction that separates us from the kit car concept and thinking.
The Revenge GTM-R must be accepted as a FACTORY or OEM produced vehicle, same as if you went to a chevy dealership to buy one.
I have no doubt that this will be an issue that Peter must overcome immediately at the upcoming show and auto with journalists familiar with Factory Five from SEMA shows and more recently the PRI event. I am hoping that F5 CEO to accompany Peter there and do a few words announcing the partnership, because it MUST be a done deal.
It was pr'd that ONLY when F5 signed off on the production prototype would things go forward. Well guess what? Seems thats just what were doing.
Not to whine but down about 90% in investment and the RS wont do me no good at all - same as most here. The timing will most likely cut us out from any chance of a breakeven. Right now its kind of hard for me to cheer Peter as it seems I wont reap any benefits of the companies potential success - even though I paid for my ticket to ride.
