Courtnie Provencher, Technical Sales & Support

If you happened to catch the All-Girls 427 build episode on “PowerNation” last year, you would have seen Courtnie Provencher turning wrenches with four other industry women as they built a Factory Five Mk4 Roadster in five-days on the show.

We are excited to have Courtnie join our tech support team here at Factory Five. Courtnie has an outstanding automotive background. She has worked as crew on a Sprint car team, and is an accomplished mechanic and has expert parts knowledge.

Next time you call Factory Five tech, she might be the one to pick-up the phone, so give her a warm welcome. Click here to watch the “Detroit Muscle” episode of the All-Girls Factory Five 427 build.

Greg Hoy, Marketing Manager

Please join me in also welcoming Greg Hoy to the company. Greg has pulled up his SoCal roots and moved out to New England to take over responsibilities of Marketing Manager.

I’ve known Greg for over 20 years, and we worked together in Southern California in the 90’s.  Greg comes from a strong marketing and broadcast background, he is a solid car-guy and has worked with us for years on project work. Greg will be joining Tony Zullo, who heads up Sales & Tech Support, and the rest of the team here at Factory Five effective immediately.

Greg’s job is to help build the company, help build the community, and help bring the message of Factory Five to a wider audience both domestically and internationally.

You’ll be seeing Greg and Courtnie at Factory Five events in the near future!

As Courtnie and Greg begin to introduce themselves to the forums and the FFR community, please give them a warm welcome!
