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 Indianapolis 500 when Phil Giebler, who drove for American Dream Motorsports, crashed his Panoz chassis and failed to qualify. Panoz effectively discontinued their IndyCar Series involvement after the 2008 season due to all IndyCar Series teams opting for the Dallara IR-05 chassis, and Panoz concentrated on sports car endurance racing.
The G-Force GF09 IndyCar, later branded as Panoz GF09, primarily saw success in the 2003 and 2004 Indianapolis 500 races. In 2003, Gil de Ferran won the Indianapolis 500 with a G-Force GF09, and in 2004, Buddy Rice won with the same car. The GF09 chassis also helped Scott Dixon win the 2003 IndyCar championship.
