The G-Force GF09 is a racing car developed and produced by American manufacturer Élan Motorsport Technologies for Panoz, with original work having been performed by G-Force Technologies prior to its purchase by Panoz, for use in the IndyCar Series. A subsequent version that saw the greatest usage in IndyCar racing was the G-Force GF09B with the Panoz GF09C following.

The GF09's last appearance was in practice for the

2008 season
due to all IndyCar Series teams opting for the Dallara IR-05 chassis, and Panoz concentrated on sports car endurance racing.
