==Partnership with Formula Asia==
Following the success of the Motegi 500 oval race, it was announced that future events from 2000 will be partnered with Formula Asia. The partnership was an attempt to deliver more Asian talent and to diversify the grid with drivers from different Asian countries including those who are regulars in Formula Asia. This was welcomed by the Formula Asia board who stated that partnering with a Japanese racing event would be a boost to the Asian drivers looking to develop their careers further.

==Involvement of Formula Asia==
2000 became the start of a new chapter when Formula Asia began expressing interest in their involvement at the 2000 Motegi 500KM. Following discussions with Formula Nippon since early 1999, Formula Asia entered Hunnisett Racing with FA 1998 champ Ben Walsh partnering alongside Alex Yoong (upon invitations), whom the lattar would later race for Team LeMans in the 2000 Formula Nippon Season. Dandelion Racing also agreed to field in FA 1996 Champ Narain Karthikeyan as the team's sole driver for the race with full funding provided by Formula Asia. This thus began a long term relationship with Formula Nippon.
Formula Asia was also responible for providing partial funding of Hunnisett Racing's entries.
Hunnisett orignally intended to field in 1999 Formula Asia Champion Nattapong Horthongkum alongside Alex Yoong but was ruled out on financial grounds.
