FXDD Partners with Mazda’s Factory-supported Rolex
GT Racing Team
NEW YORK, January 8, 2007
- FXDD, a global leader in online foreign currency exchange,
today announced its partnership with Mazda’s factory-supported
Rolex GT racing team to co-brand the GT No. 69 car that
will compete throughout the 2007 Grand American Road Racing
ROLEX GT series. “It’s a privilege to partake
in such a high-profile branding campaign with a prestigious
racing team like Mazda’s,” commented Joseph Botkier, CEO
of FXDD. “Although online trading is a much different
world from that of racing, there are similarities in what
drives success. In the forex business, our success is
attributed to providing our online e-customers with quality
service, superior execution, and technology that delivers
speed and accuracy,” Botkier continued. “In racing, Mazda’s
technical expertise coupled with the Mazda Grand Am GT’s
light weight form and powerful engine delivers an extremely
competitive package. Together, we are very optimistic
about our chances in 2007 -- especially for the Rolex
24 at Daytona.”
The 2007 season begins when the green flag waves at noon
on January 27th to start the world-renowned enduro ‘The
Rolex 24’. The Rolex, which sees prominent drivers from
every motor sport discipline compete head-to-head for
24 hours straight, ends when the checkered flag is waved
at noon 24 hours later on January 28th.

About Mazda North American Operations
On any given weekend, there are more Mazdas on the road-race
tracks of America than any other brand of vehicle. At
the track, you’ll see MX-5 Miata, RX-8, MAZDA3, MAZDA6,
RX-7 and other vintage Mazda models competing, because
every Mazda has the Soul of a Sports Car. In fact, the
fastest growing road-racing class in the U.S. is the SCCA’s
Spec Miata class, with nearly 1,500 first- and second-generation
Miatas tearing up America’s racetracks, making it the
most-raced production car in the world. Mazda’s involvement
in motorsports extends to its relationship with Mazda
Raceway Laguna Seca, one of the world’s premier road-racing
circuits, and the Skip Barber Schools for driving and
racing.

Operations oversees the sales, marketing, parts and customer
service support of Mazda vehicles in the United States,
