Want to own a 330 KPH Supercar? Build it yourself Gearheads attending the recent BC Classic & Custom Car Show were among the first to see Brian Martel’s newly completed supercar. He and his dad had finished it in their ALYN EDWARDS backyard shop just a Classic few days earlier. They RIDES had started the build in September 2010 and spent an estimated 2,500 hours doing almost everything themselves except the paint. This car is built to run with the fastest supercars on the planet. The GTM Gen II may be the ultimate kit car. The pile of boxes shipped from the Factory Five company in Wareham, Mass. costs about $20,000 plus transport. Then the builder needs to buy a late-model wrecked Corvette for another $10,000. A telephone book-size instruction manual details every step of the build. The results that have recently emerged from the Martel garage look like a gleaming four-wheel stiletto pushed by more than 400 horsepower. Road & Track Magazine called the GTM “the fastest car you will ever build.” This rocket is capable of going from 0 to 100 kph in less than three seconds. It can blaze through a quarter mile timer in 11 seconds at 212 kph (132 mph). The feather-weight fiberglass body wrapped around a tubular frame with roll bar completes a car that weighs a mere 1,180 kilograms (2,600 lbs). It blows by Ferrari 430s and Porsche road racers. Take the time to watch the YouTube video that puts you in the driver’s seat: www.youtube.com/
Brian and Ray Martel teamed up to build this Factory Five GTM Supercar as a family backyard project.
The large rear spoiler and custom exhaust are features on the custom-built supercar.
watch?v=eNujSSzRy7g. Ray Martel and his son Brian saw an earlier model Factory Five GTM at a car show in Pleasanton, Ca. A little internet investigation led to the decision to build one. They bought a front-end damaged 2003 Z6 Corvette in Salt Lake City, Utah for $13,500, landed in Vancouver. It became the donor car for the project, yielding its 405 hp V8 engine, front and
rear suspension and other components. Parts that weren’t needed were sold. Then the Martels went to work in the shop – sometimes putting in 18-hour days. Ray had grown up fixing cars with his brothers while being mentored by his father, who had a home shop. He graduated through the construction of high-powered street racers including a Chevy II, Corvette, Sunbeam Tiger Continued on Pg. B2

side with his father wasn’t easy. But the results are spectacular. They, along with body man Garry Salamon, made many body modifications including replacing the small rear side windows with functional scoops and a functional roof scoop delivering cooling air to the rear-mounted Corvette engine. The transmission is a Porsche 997 Carrera six speed with transaxle.
Custom engine valve covers make the Corvette V8 engine look like an exotic V12. The wiring was done by Ron Willcox. Sixteen coats of cabernet candy red paint covered with clear were applied by Steve Crompton, giving the car the look of a gleaming ruby. The car handily passed the B.C. Motor Vehicle Inspection. It had been road tested once before heading to

Ray will head back to the shop to help his other son, Tyler, build his ride into a full custom Chevy S10 pickup powered by a Corvette V8 engine.

Cadillac XTS capless fueling keeps hands and paint clean
OFFER VALID until May 31, 2012
250.475.2000
517 Kelvin Rd • SearlesAuto.ca
SATURDAY, MAY 5
Smart engineering makes gas stops quicker, less messy
The new Cadillac XTS luxury sedan features many technologies that are noticed the instant the vehicle’s ignition button is pushed. But some advancements, like a new capless fuel filler assembly, hide literally behind closed doors. Because fuel systems must be fully sealed, a loose cap can trigger a “check engine� light and lead to a service visit. The 2013 XTS doesn’t have a traditional twist-off cap hidden behind its fuel door. Because of this, the door itself doesn’t need to accommodate a hand and was designed to be smaller and less noticeable on the XTS’ sheet metal.
Despite having no cap, the system meets all fuel system sealing regulations. When a fuel nozzle is inserted, it pushes aside a set of two doors, each locking fuel in with a rubber seal around its edge. The two doors are designed to assure the system will remain airtight through years of ownership. Moving beyond capped systems has further advantages for car owners. It eliminates the risk of leaving a gas station with a dangling cap, which can lead to paint damage and messy fuel dripping. Because the XTS uses an advanced V6 engine with direct-injection and lightweight innovations like exhaust manifolds integrated into the cylinder heads and a next-generation six-speed transmission, fuel stops will also be less frequent.

2013 Ford Shelby GT500 certified as world’s most powerful V8 GT500 also offers segment-leading fuel-efficiency Metroland Media WheelsTalk.com
The all-new supercharged 5.8-litre powerplant in the 2013 Ford Shelby GT500 has been officially SAEcertified as the most powerful series production V8 in the world with peak output of 662 hp and 631 lb/ft of torque. That’s more power and torque than low-volume sports cars costing tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars more than the GT500, which is the most fuelefficient vehicle in its segment. In fact, the 2013 GT500 is the most fuel-efficient car with over 550 hp in any segment available in North America. Unlike high-strung engines found in much more expensive exotic supercars, the GT500 engine generates
its massive thrust throughout its operating range with 395 lb/ft of torque available just off idle at 1,000 rpm. More than 90 per cent of the peak torque is available from 2,200 to 5,800 rpm so that no matter when you squeeze the go pedal, the GT500 will just get up and run. The combination of the new TVS 2.3-litre supercharger, twin overhead camshafts and four valves per cylinder ensures this stallion can breathe all the way to 7,000 rpm with the peak power production coming at 6,500 rpm and holding fairly steady right to the rev limit. Even with the most powerful production V8 in the world, the 2013 Shelby GT500 improves on the fuel efficiency of the 2012 model with an EPA-estimated (US) 15 mpg city, (US) 24 mpg highway and (US) 18 mpg combined with no gas guzzler tax.
