Jesper Ingerslev, Director of Engineering
 

B.S. Mechanical Engineering

Rennselaer Polytechnic Institute, 1996 

Jesper (pronounced YES’ per) is the most senior engineer at Factory Five having joined the company right out of college in 1996.  He is responsible for all development and engineering projects.

 

He has worked on all facets of our company, primarily focusing on production and engineering.  In school he managed the automotive shop at Rennselaer, and worked on a Baja race car team.

 


The Ingerslev family: Jen and baby Landen, daughter Kurstie and Jesper

Recently, Jesper and his wife Jen gave birth to a new baby boy who we expect to grow up to be just like his old man – a “no holds barred” straight shooter with Popeye forearms and an eye for engineering detail.
 

Vital Statistics: 

Jesper has an impressive resume of racing wins, including the 1998 NE Replica Champion.  He has built a twin turbo FFR Roadster and a similarly powered Coupe (both based on his own 150,000 mile Mustang) and currently drives a 4.6 DOHC powered Mk3 Roadster.  His Mk3 was recently described by a Car & Driver Magazine editor as “the finest Cobra I’ve ever driven”.

 
Mike Pisani, R&D Mechanical Engineer
 

B.S. Mechanical Engineering,    

Northeastern Univ. 2003. 

Mike is an important member of our engineering team, currently working to support R&D with primary duties on the GTM project. 

 

He is also our resident SolidWorks and 3D modeling expert.  He also serves direct support for sales events, races and technical support.

Sincere about helping others build their cars, Mike is an excellent hands-on engineer and is able to convey his knowledge to inquisitive customers.

 

Mike is also the company ladies man.  What he lacks in looks he makes up for in effort, and seems to always be dating the most beautiful women in Boston.
 

Vital Statistics:

Mike endures endless ridicule and cruelty at the hands of the FFR staff for his longtime dedication to his 1984 Chevy pick-up restoration project that has lasted longer than the average lifespan of an 80’s vintage GM vehicle.
