Inside look by Marshall Pruett

But what Furai has shown the Mazda team is the real value of teamwork and key partners:

- Racing Beat worked tirelessly to develop the world’s only ethanol powered three-rotor rotary engine.

- Mother’s Waxes and Polishes supplies an extensive range of waxes, polishes, and cleaners to keep the car looking its best at all times.

- Together with Liferacing, AER developed a six-speed paddle-shift mechanism.

- Brembo worked with the Mazda team to ensure the brakes were as effective on Furai as they were in competition

- Sachs and Eibach worked together to bring an aggressive, but steetable, shock and spring package.

- Nippon Paint provided the amazing three-feet-deep paintwork.

- Castrol supplies all the high-performance lubricants.

- Mazda’s 2006 and 2007 ALMS tire development partner Kumho created the special tread patterns necessary for Furai’s tires.

- Wheels are from partner BBS, and are 14-spoke, centerlock aluminum.

- Seatbelts come from Sparco Motor Sports.

- Data acquisition and powertrain controllers are manufactured and tuned by MoTeC, one of the world’s leaders in racing electronics.
