The first car testing facility built in the United States by a Japanese company has opened on the Ad-Chin Indian reservation south of Phoenix.

Religious rituals performed by a Japanese Shinto priest and an American Indian opened the 10 km oval track last month, the first time the two religions had been celebrated together.

The track will be used by the Nissan Motor Corporation.
