The Factory 11 Story

It all started with a frustrating night of racing where nothing seemed to work. Nick Ely and Cody Nevin started comparing notes after a brutal night of racing. Instead of giving up, they decided to join forces and build setups that would dominate the competition.

Keith Hackney rounded out the crew with his legendary Legends car knowledge, bringing years of experience in precision racing to the team. Together, they formed a powerhouse of racing expertise.

The team's approach is simple: build setups that are fast, consistent, and adaptable to changing track conditions. They test every setup extensively in competitive racing environments before releasing it to customers. "We don't sell anything we wouldn't race ourselves," is their motto.

When they're not dominating the virtual tracks, the Factory 11 crew can be found arguing about spring rates, shock settings, and who has to buy the pizza for their all-night testing sessions. Their competitive nature drives them to constantly improve their setups, which means Factory 11 customers always get the best possible product.

What sets Factory 11 apart is their diverse racing backgrounds. Nick brings his Big Block expertise, Cody has mastered multiple disciplines including Late Models, UMP Modifieds, and Big Blocks, while Keith brings precision from the Legends world. This combination of knowledge allows them to approach setup problems from multiple angles and create solutions that work across different tracks and conditions.

Each member brings something unique to the table. Nick's aggressive driving style helps create setups that can handle being pushed to the limit. Cody's technical knowledge ensures every adjustment has a purpose. Keith's precision and attention to detail adds finesse to every setup they create.

Their commitment to quality and performance has made Factory 11 SimSports the go-to source for serious racers looking for that competitive edge. "We're racers ourselves," says Nick. "We know what it takes to win."
