Factory Five Racing announced a few weeks ago a new, mid-engine, light weight (1,800lb) car based on a Subaru WRX single donor with an internal code name 818. In cooperation with Grassroots Motorsports Magazine, FFR is having a competition to design the car and even name it. Some of the early designs submitted look very promising. Imagine a smaller 918 with a turbo flat-4 putting out 300hp in a sub 2,000 lb car. Targeted pricing is less than $10k for the kit and $15k for a completed car.
Here's the announcement
What's New
There is a FFR and GRM forum each dedicated to the project.
And here is one of the submitted designs!
