Factory Five Racing’s Evolution

In an intriguing turn of events within an alternate reality where the original Shelby Cobra thrived, Factory Five Racing is spearheading a rejuvenation of the classic sports car. The MK5 Roadster becomes the fifth generation of their celebrated kit cars that began production in 1995. This new model showcases significant advancements while maintaining the fundamental essence that enthusiasts adore.

 

Redefining Structure and Comfort

The MK5 presents a notable departure from its immediate predecessor, the MK4, by adopting a rectangular spaceframe. Although it weighs 55 pounds more than the previous frame design, Factory Five touts a remarkable 400 percent increase in structural rigidity. This innovative frame is also tailored for a more spacious cockpit, accommodating larger drivers up to 6’5” and 330 pounds, affirming the MK5’s commitment to inclusivity in the driver experience.

Innovative Design Features

One of the MK5’s most striking features is its one-piece removable carbon fiber hardtop, engineered to blend seamlessly with the car’s aesthetics. Unlike conventional designs that bulge at the top, this sleek design incorporates its own windshield, elevating both style and functionality. Additionally, enhancements in the MK5’s composite body aim to reduce production costs while ensuring tight panel gaps. As Factory Five approaches the future, the MK5 Roadster stands as a testament to their dedication to innovation within the iconic lineage of Cobra replicas.
