BILDTRAK Inc. announced a multiyear agreement with Factory Five Racing Inc. at the SEMA Show. Beginning in 2027, every Factory Five complete vehicle kit will include a BILDTRAK G1, and the products will be available through Factory Five's online store.

Why it matters

The agreement places BILDTRAK's visual hardware mapping system directly into the hands of component car builders who assemble kits at home. It gives kit buyers a dedicated tool for organizing and documenting fasteners during assembly.

Factory Five has delivered tens of thousands of complete vehicle kits since its founding in 1995, and the BILDTRAK G1 will ship with every complete kit beginning in 2027. The agreement's financial terms and expected annual kit volume were not disclosed.

The players

BILDTRAK Inc.

BILDTRAK Inc. is the company that makes the G1 visual hardware mapping system used to organize fasteners during builds.

Factory Five Racing Inc.

Factory Five Racing Inc. is a manufacturer of component car kits based in Wareham, Massachusetts, with tens of thousands of kits delivered since 1995.

The details

BILDTRAK's G1 is a visual hardware mapping system with a rugged, impact-resistant shell and reusable, self-healing layout panels. Builders draw bolt patterns on its writable surface and press fasteners onto it in the order they came off, writing notes beside each piece of hardware; the G1 is also being brought into Factory Five's Build School.

Timeline

  1. SEMA Show, 2026: BILDTRAK announces the multiyear agreement with Factory Five.

  2. 2027: Every Factory Five complete vehicle kit begins including a BILDTRAK G1.

Roadmap

Factory Five's kit business, which has delivered tens of thousands of complete vehicles since 1995, has long relied on home builders assembling parts without standardized documentation tools. Bundling a hardware mapping system into every kit marks a shift toward treating assembly organization as part of the product itself.

Factory Five complete kit buyers will receive a BILDTRAK G1 with their vehicle starting in 2027, giving them a built-in way to track fasteners during assembly. The G1 will also be available for purchase through Factory Five's online store.

The takeaway

For builders planning a Factory Five kit, a dedicated fastener-mapping system can reduce the risk of misplaced hardware during assembly. Buyers can check whether their order includes the G1 once the 2027 model year begins.
