Factory Five Customer Gary Horn Sends News from Utah

Posted on September 18, 2012 by Dave Lindsey in What's New

Factory Five customer Gary Horn attended a fun event in Utah and sent us these great pictures.

“Hey Dave & Crew! Just thought I’d share some pics from the Utah C-car Friends BBQ help last weekend. AWESOME group of people sharing a common interest, even though not ALL of them own/drive FFR machines. In the mix are a couple Kirkhams (they ARE right down the road in Orem, after-all!) Regardless of manufacturer, these folks know how to have a good time and enjoy their little “family”…and it truly is a family!”

Gary, sincere thanks for the great photos and it looks like everyone had a wonderful time. The cars all look great. Congrats!

Dave Smith
President

October 30, 2026

Some stories come full circle, and Jason K.’s is a great example. Jason bought his first Factory Five Mk1 Roadster, kit #1413, in May 1998 at just 24 years old. He spent a year building it and loved it so much that he even included it in his will for his two sons. He never planned to sell it, but life had other plans. Over the five years he owned it, Jason made plenty of memories, including attending Run & Gun at St. Louis International Speedway in 1998 or 1999.
